Based on the data of eight kinds of energy consumption in each province from 2000 to 2016, the carbon emissions generated by energy consumption in each province are calculated, and the carbon emission efficiency of energy consumption is further calculated and its spatial distribution pattern is studied. The results show that the carbon emission efficiency of China’s energy consumption has improved as a whole during the sample period, and the efficiency distribution exists in different regions. To some extent, there is weak positive spatial correlation, but the overall Moran I index shows that there is no significant spatial correlation in the sample as a whole.
