In this paper, through the construction of spatial LMDI decomposition framework, we decompose the influencing factors of Shandong Province's total electricity consumption intensity from 2015 to 2018 into two parts: city’s economic growth factor and city’s electricity consumption intensity factor. The results show that, in this period, the increase of city’s electricity consumption intensity is the main reason for the increase of total electricity consumption intensity in Shandong Province. However, the city’s economic growth slightly slow down the increase of the total electricity consumption intensity. Compared with other cities, the growth of electricity consumption intensity in Binzhou is the main driving force of total intensity growth, accounting for 69.35%. However, 6 cities (Dezhou, Jining, Jinan, Laiwu, Liaocheng, Zibo) play a negative role in the rise of Shandong's overall electricity consumption intensity.
