Abstract

This paper studied the cointegration and causality relations between China's energy consumption and economic growth. It concludes that there is bi-directional causality, but no cointegration, between them; therefore China may have underestimated the pressure from increasing energy demand and the impacts of energy policies on its economic growth.
