Abstract
The Gini coefficient is an important index in measuring inequality in economics. In this paper, based on application of the conception and signification of Gini Coefficient in the energy utilization efficiency analysis, all areas of the whole country is studied with this method, and correlative factors of Gini coefficient for energy intensity are analyzed in detail, such as regional economic development level, regional industrialization, energy-intensive industry. The green contribution coefficient was suggested as the basis for judging the unfair factors. The energy intensity Gini Coefficient and green contribution coefficient in year 2006 in China is calculated to evaluate the energy utilization efficiency analysis, finally obtain rational conclusions.
