Based on SBM-Undesirable model, this paper evaluated air environmental efficiency of 8 provinces of the Silk Road Economic Belt of China during the period of 2010—2017, and investigated the temporal-variation and energy conservation and emission reduction potential. Empirical analysis shows that the overall atmospheric environmental efficiency of Silk Road Economic Belt is still at low point but presents a mild rising trend over the period 2010—2017, regional differences are remarkable, and it has great potential of energy conservation and emission reduction in the future.
