Using spatial panel econometric models, this paper estimates the dragging effect of energy resources of the Yangtze River Delta metropolitan areas. We fi nd that the growth drag of energy in the Yangtze River Delta is about 6% on average, which means that energy constraints decrease the economic growth by 6% annually, higher than the national level that has been previously measured in the literature. This result has taken into account the impact of neighboring cities' economic development, so as to obtain a more accurate estimate. Based on these measurement results, we propose some policy recommendations.展开更多

By using this model, it is viable to estimate the resources consumption drag, measured as the reduced speed of urbanization from resources consumption and environmental services. In terms of reduced urbanization process, the aggregated and disaggregated effects from some crucial resources, such as energy, land and water, are calculated and presented. The results show that the drags from energy consumption, land and water in process of China’s urbanization are 0.1061, 0.0036 and 0.1914 percent point respectively and the aggregate drag arrives 0.3010 percent point. With the increasing population and the developing urbanization process in China, the constraints of resources, water and energy in particular cannot be eliminated and the drags will be enhanced and hence the pressure of further urbanization process is still a relatively serious problem.展开更多
