5. Conclusions
Under the policy of energy saving and emission reduction, it is very urgent and important for strategic emerging industries to improve energy utilization efficiency by technological innovation, but there is a main theoretical effecting relationship of technological innovation on energy utilization efficiency. Therefore, with reference to the existing domestic and foreign research results, taking full account of the impact of carbon emissions, scientific research input, technology management output and other factors on technological innovation, the paper makes an empirical analysis on driving effect of technological innovation on energy utilization efficiency by constructing the panel data of the 21 industries between 2000 and 2015 and the stochastic frontier analysis method, and analyzes the critical influencing factors. The main conclusions of the empirical analysis are as follows: (1) indicates that inefficiency of driving effect of 0.7583 technological innovation is one of the major factors that influence the energy utilization efficiency of strategic emerging industries. (2) The driving effect on energy utilization efficiency is higher and increases year by year. (3) Based on the analysis of the driving effect in specific industries, the driving effect on computer machine manufacturers is the biggest and spacecraft manufacture is the smallest. (4) The driving effect on energy utilization efficiency between 2000 and 2015 exhibits an increasing trend, but individual industries fluctuate during the increasing trend.
