Abstract
Energy is of vital importance to the modern industrial economy. Based on the panel data of 36 industrial sectors in Guangdong, this paper analyzes the relationship between energy intensity and industrial added value by means of gray relational analysis. The results show that the energy intensities of industrial sectors are quite inconsistent with their industrial added values. Guangdong should attach great importance to the development of “win–win” industrial sectors which increasing industrial output while reducing energy intensity.
