摘　　要：文章研究了在东道国人均收入水平差异的影响下,FDI对于降低本国能源消费强度、提高能源利用效率的作用是否相同,并且对这种作用的显著程度和潜在的作用空间进行了分析。文章借鉴"环境库兹涅茨曲线"理论,以人均收入与能源利用效率的非线性模型作为分析框架,使用1985-2008年包含74个高收入和中低收入国家的全球面板数据进行了实证检验。结果验证了"引入FDI能够提高本国的能源利用效率,降低能源消费强度"这一假设,同时,证明了"环境库茨涅茨曲线"理论在能源消费领域的适用性,即人均收入与能源消费强度之间存在"倒U型"关系。文章之后通过在模型中引入交叉项验证了更高的人均收入水平能够更好地促进东道国对FDI的吸收,从而降低能源消费强度、提高能源利用效率。This paper studies whether the effects of FDI on the reduc tion in energy consumption intensity and the increase in energy use efficiency vary with per capita income in host countries, and further analyzes the exertion degree and potential exertion space. By referring to the theory of environmental Kuznets curve, it takes the nonlinear model between per capita income and energy use efficiency as the analytical framework, and makes an empirical study on the basis of global panel data of 74 countries with differ- ent development levels from 1985 to 2008. It verifies the hypothesis that the introduction of FDI results in the increase in energy use efficiency and the re- duction in energy consumption intensity, and the applicability of the theory of environmental Kuznets curve in energy consumption field, namely an inverted U relationship between per capita income and energy consumption intensity. Furthermore, it introduces interaction terms to confirm that higher per capita income could better promote the absorption of FDI by host countries, thereby reducing energy consumption intensity and raising energy use efficiency.
