Abstract

Based on the panel data of 11 cities in GBA from 2010 to 2016, this paper uses spatial data analysis method to study the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of air pollution, and the impact of energy structure on air pollution in GBA. The results show that the more serious air pollution is mainly distributed in Zhaoqing, Foshan, Jiangmen, etc. Air pollution has spatial correlation and obvious “path dependence” characteristics in spatial distribution. Secondly, the energy structure coefficient is positive, which means that the coal consumption increases 1%, the air pollution index will rise by 0.1381%. At the same time, a “U”-type relationship exists between per capita GDP and air pollution.
