Introduction
Decomposition analysis has been extensively used to study the factors of changes of an aggregate indicator over time. Two popular decomposition techniques include index decomposition analysis (IDA) and structural decomposition analysis (SDA). These popular techniques in energy and emission have been developed independently.
For almost two decades, the most widely used index decomposition analysis (IDA) approaches in energy and energy-related gas emission studies have been formulated using Laspeyres and Divisia index. Index decomposition analysis is now a popular analytical tool for policymaking in the national energy and environmental issues (Ang & Zhang, 2000).
Methodology
The basic IDA identity in energy consumption studies is used to illustrate spatial decomposition analysis for two regions. Assuming that energy consumption of a region is divided into m sectors. Considering that E is the total energy consumption and is the energy consumption in sector i, A is the overall activity level; Ai is the activity level of sector i; Si is the activity share of sector i (=Ai/A); I is the aggregate energy intensity (=E/A), and Ii is the energy intensity of sector i:
E = =
When the aggregate energy consumption of the two regions (Region 1 & Region 2) is compared, we may choose the one with a lower consumption (assuming it to be Region 2) as the base region in the comparison. In spatial decomposition analysis, the difference in the aggregate energy consumption between the two regions, denoted as , is decomposed to give the following:
where the terms on the right give the effects associated with differences between the two regions at the overall activity level, the activity mix and the sectoral energy intensity, respectively. In IDA terminology, they are referred to as the activity effect, activity structure effect and energy intensity effect respectively.
Policy makers may wish to know why there are differences among countries, or provinces or states within a country. They also wish to know the implications of these differences and the best course of action to take.
For these purposes, the use of the bilateral– regional (B–R) model or radial–regional (R–R) model provides useful but incomplete information. A more elaborate spatial decomposition analysis model is needed, which we shall introduce in this section.
To reduce the number of decomposition factors and at the same time to avoid the arbitrariness of choosing a benchmark reference in a multi-region spatial decomposition analysis, one solution is to compare each of the target regions with a reference entity given by the mean of the entire group. In energy decomposition analysis, this reference entity has the energy consumption for each sector, and it also has the activity level given by the arithmetic mean of the corresponding values for all the regions in the comparison group. The activity structure and energy intensity for the entity are then calculated from these group mean values (Ang, Xu, & Su, 2015).
We call this multi-regional (M-R) spatial decomposition analysis model, in which the relationships between any of the two regions are obtained indirectly through the results of two relevant direct decomposition analyses. Hence, for a comparison group consisting of n regions, n direct decomposition cases are conducted between each member and the group mean, and sets of indirect results that can be derived to allow a comparison between any of the two regions. The indirect results for Region 1 and Region 2 are estimated in the following formula:
where Rμ refers to the benchmark reference, which is the group mean.
Results and Conclusion
In this study, spatial analysis using multi-regional (M-R) model for energy consumption in 2012 was carried out in 31 provinces of Iran. According to the intensity effect based on the obtained ranking, the results of the study showed that Sistan and Baluchestan had the lowest power for saving with a rating of 1, while Tehran had the most power for saving with the rating of 31. The mean national intensity effect was 358,46 million tons of coal equivalent. The provinces which are below the national mean intensity effects had higher savings and lower energy consumption. Kerman Province was first province due to the structure effect of Kerman Province, whereas Khuzestan Province was ranked as the 31st province. They respectively had the minimum and maximum intensity of the industrial structure. The national mean of industrial structure was -77.38 Million tons of coal equivalent which represent the optimal performance of a small number of industry structure governorates. The national mean of activity effect is equivalent to the -282.07 million tons of coal, where the 11 provinces are at the top of this range. The ranking of different regions of country are respectively region 5, region 2, region 3, region 4, and region 1 for intensity effect; region 2, region 5, region 1, region 4, and region 3 for structural effect, and finally region 4, region 1, region 3, region 5 and region 2 for activity effect.

The main objective of this paper is to analysis the impact of information and communication technology (ICT) on energy consumption in the MENA region selected countries during the period 1995-2011. For this purpose, used the model presented by Sadorsky (2012) and three indicators that measured ICT: the number of Internet users, the number of mobile lines and the number of telephone lines. Also, estimated and analyzed the short run and long run elasticities between the variables of the model using a system generalized method of moments (GMM-SYS). The results show that the development of ICT with each three measured indices, increased energy consumption per capita in MENA region selected countries in the short run and long run. So that a one percent increases in this indicator, average of energy consumption increases in the short run and long run respectively 0.007 and 0.089 percent.

This paper surveys economic growth and energy consumption relationship by new econometric methods in different sectors of Iran. this study uses panel error correction model and panel co integration and causality tests to investigate short run and long run relationship between energy and value added growth in different sectors of Iran’s economy with regards to energy price in the time period of 1369 until 1389.Long run and short run coefficients estimation have done by using Dynamic Ordinary Least Square, Fully Modified Ordinary Least Square and Pooled Mean Group respectively.
Results show that increasing (decreasing) of energy consumption in different sectors of Iran’s economy cause to increase (decrease) in value added growth, so we accept Feedback hypothesis in this study because of existence of bidirectional relationship between energy consumption and economic growth in sectors of Iran economy. Energy price impact on economic growth in short run is negative but in long run is positive

Abstract
High economic growth always has been of interest to policy makers and administrators that these strategies have been proposed to achieve this. Energy is a production factor and its impact on economic growth can be observed , therefore in this study was investigate the causality between energy consumption and economic growth in the ASEAN member countries, the period 1978 of 2008, for the purpose of the exam panel unit root, panel cointegration and panel vector error correction model is used.
The results of this study indicate that in this group of countries there is not co-integration relationship between energy consumption, economic growth and price growth. But there is the co-integration relationship between energy consumption and economic growth. However, long-term bilateral causality between energy consumption and economic growth in the short term, there is also a one-way causality from energy consumption to economic growth.

Abstract
This study investigates the relationship between energy consumption and economic growth in a panel of 75 selected developed and developing countries from 1970 to 2008. To that end, different panel unit root tests, panel cointegration and pooled least square are used. Results indicate the existence of Co integration relationship between economic growth and energy consumption in the long run both in developed and in developing countries. However, the co integrating vectors are not the same. Also, in the period of investigation, the developed countries have had a higher level of energy consumption than developing countries; but the long run effects of energy consumption on economic growth in developing countries have been greater than that in developed countries.
