As an application of the method proposed in this study, we calculated the energy consumption inventories of 286 cities and details on 30 types of fossil fuel and 18 socioeconomic sectors that are consistent with the System of National Accounts and analysed the basic spatial features and evolution characteristics of these cities.
The energy consumption at the city level has not been systematically estimated by provincial energy balance tables and discrepancies of in multiscale statistics have rarely been noticed.
It should also be noted that all coeficients fluctuate between 2% and 8%, indicating high stability in the estimation of city-level final energy consumption. Validation of estimation accuracy. A thorough investigation of existing literature confirmed that there is a dearth of data on China’s city-level final energy consumption.
However, due to diferences in economic development level, technology level, and energy structure among provinces and their cities, there are variations in energy intensity and energy consumption per capita. Therefore, uncertainty arises when calculating city-level final energy consumption using Eqs. (4–6).
This study expected the impacts of smart city projects to be larger in resource-based cities because these cities could use the energy more inefficiently than other cities before the project’s implementation, such that after the implementation of the project the decline in energy consumption per unit of GDP would be greater.
The average Pearson correlation coefficients between city-level final energy consumption (FEC), on the one side, and gross domestic product (GDP) and resident population (POP), on the other side, from 2005 to 2021 were 0.854 and 0.833, respectively.
