Coordinated Path Of Open Economy, Energy Saving And Pollution Reduction

Over the past 30 years, China's economic miracle has been witnessed by the world, however, behind the prosperity, the energy and environment issues are often neglected. Since reform and opening up, China's economic grow rapidly, but the mode of "four high and one more" (high input, high consumption, high material consumption, high pollution, covers more land) economic growth has not been fundamentally changed, the economic growth pays a lot.We speculated that:the effect from open economy should be positive to the strength, but negative to the total amount. However, we should emphasize that China's energy and environment are facing a problem of the total amount. For the relations between open economy, energy saving and pollution reduction, exist a lot of dispute. We can find that, if the relevant countermeasures be devised by a single perspective, would deviate from the good-fast development path.Is the coordination problems of the open economy, energy saving and pollution reduction an energy problem? Is the key of coordination the energy price reform? The goal of this study is just base on this. Through theoretical and empirical analysis, we reaserch both of the industrial and living departments, inspecting the logic relationship between energy, environment and open economy, analysising and comparing the transmission mechanism by the immediate and long-term effect, and further explore the possible path of coordination. This paper empirically analyse several parts:Part 1:Empirically test the scale effect. Firstly we studies the effect from opening up to the economic growth, further studies the effect from economic growth to the energy and environment.Part 2:Empirically test the structure effect.Firstly we studies the effect from open economy to the economic structure, population structure, energy structure, further studies the effect from structure to the energy and environment. Part 3:Empirically test the technology effect.Firstly we studies the technical differences between foreign and domestic industrial enterprises, the open economy's technology spillover effects, further studyies the effect from industrial technology to the energy and environment.Part 4:Empirically test the policy effect. Firstly we studies the effect from open economy to income, the effect from income to the environment policies, further research the effects from environmental policies to the energy and environment.Part 5:Empirically test system and simulation. Based on simultaneous equations models, and through the in-sample simulation, simulates the related policies in order to explore a possible co-ordination path.General speaking, although the trade and investment liberalization has a technology spillover effect, but the ultimate impact to China's energy and environment is negative. In life sector, energy consumption and pollution emissions can not be reduced significantly by corresponding measures, we should establish a positive energy saving and pollution reduction awareness of all the people.The relative reduction of coal demand and technology enhancement of foreign capital enterprises is the coordination path. China's current energy prices do not reflect the scarcity of resources, in particular, underestimated the cost of the environment, a large number of energy-intensive products exports was racing. At present, comprehensively raise the price of energy is not operational.The results show that, we should enhance the relative price of coal by keep the overall energy prices remain unchanged, which will not only to protect our open economy continued to grow, and boost energy saving and pollution reduction; However, energy price reform is not enough, we need further to set higher standards to improve the technical efficiency of foreign capital enterprises.
