This paper, based on provincial level panel data of the eastern and western region of China, compares the regional difference of the relationship between energy and economic growth by using panel unit root, panel co-integration and error correction model. The empirical results show that the long-term relationship between energy consumption and economic growth is significantly different significantly in the Eastern region of China from that in the Western region of China. The relationship between energy consumption and economic growth in the Eastern region is closer than that in the Western region. Finally, we give some suggestions on how to promote coordinated growth between Chinese regional economics and regional energy consumption.
