Abstract

Ecological efficiency is an important index measuring and reflecting the sustainable development level of economy, resources and environment in a region. This paper makes an empirical study on the ecological efficiency of 31 provinces in China in 2014 with the three-stage DEA model. The results show that the three indexes, the total investment in environmental governance (Unit: hundred million Yuan), the second industry proportion(%), and per capita automobile ownership (car/ten thousand people) functioning as the external environmental variables have significantly impacted the regional ecological efficiency. Excluding the impact of the external environment and statistical noise, the technical efficiency of regional ecological efficiency has increased from 0.526 to 0.639, and the pure technical efficiency has increased from 0.650 to 0.858, with the scale efficiency decreased from 0.833 to 0.740, accurately reflecting the regional ecological efficiency level. 31 Chinese provinces are classified into four different types according to the pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency. Every region shall, according to the characteristics of its efficiency, emphasize differently on improving the management level or expanding the scale of production so as to improve the ecological efficiency.

에코 효율성은 경제 및 자원 환경의 지속가능한 발전의 중요한 요인이다. 에코 효율성은 중국의 지역 경제 및 자원 환경의 평가 척도가 된다. 본 연구는 3단계 DEA 모델을 이용하여 2014년도의 중국에 있는 31개성의 에코 효율성을 분석 하였다. 분석결과, 외부환경변수인 환경 거버넌스의 총 투자액, 2차 산업 및 1인당 자동차 소유량이 중국 지역의 에코 효율성에 많은 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 외부환경 및 임의오류를 제외한 후 중국 지역의 에코 효율성은 0.526에서 0.639로 증가하였고, 순수 기술 효율성은 0.650에서 0.858로 증가하였으며, 규모 효율성은 0.833에서 0.740로 감소하였다. 또한 순수 기술 효율성 및 규모 효율성의 측정을 위해서 중국에 있는 31개성을 4가지 유형으로 구분하였다. 분석결과, 중국의 각 성은 에코 효율성을 개선하기 위해 각성의 특성에 적합한 에코 효율성 유형에 따라 관리수준을 제고하거나 생산규모를 확대해야 하는 것으로 분석되었다.
