Abstract

With the increasing energy demand, the urbanization level of China has been greatly improved in last decades. This paper utilized a static CGE model to simulate the impact of urbanization against energy consumption based on data from IO-table 2007. The result implies that urbanization imposed salient positive stimulus on macro economy development; Urbanization will cause the increase of household’s energy consumption.
