Abstract

This study builds a theoretic model to estimates the relationship between gas consumption and metropolitan economic performance with annual data from 1978 to 2013 for Guangzhou in China. Based on Granger causality test with vector error correction model, empirical results show that there is Granger causality from gross domestic product to gas consumption for long run in Guangzhou.
