Urban spatial structure and total-factor energy efficiency in Chinese provinces

Binbin Yu

Summary: International experience shows that urbanization rates between 30% and 70% signify rapid urban development, with China facing a choice between a mono-centric or poly-centric urban structure for optimal economic efficiency. The distribution of urban systems plays a crucial role in spatial resource allocation and overall energy efficiency. Regional disparities, development stages, and city sizes all impact the effects of urban spatial structure on total-factor energy efficiency, with Eastern provinces benefiting more from a mono-centric structure while overall urbanization and city scale improvements can counteract the negative impacts.
