Abstract :
This paper, based on 1978-2010 energy consumption and economic growth data, investigates the relationship between energy consumption and economic growth in Heilongjiang Province using co-integration and Granger causal test with vector error correction (VEC) model. The co-integration test reveals the long equilibrium relationship between economic growth and energy consumption in Heilongjiang and the long unidirectional causality from energy consumption to economic growth. The energy consumption promotes economic development in Heilongjiang Province. Finally, we give some suggestions on how to coordinated growth between economic growth and energy consumption in Heilongjiang Province.
