N2  - Variation in the energy intensity of industrial sector can be expla ined by two  main factors: changes in the industrial structure (structural effect) and variations in  the energy intensity of individual sector (sectoral energy intensity effect).  The basic purpose of this study is to identify the role of structural changes as  well as the contribution of the various sectors in the variation of industrial energy  intensities of five Asian countries: R.O. Korea, Indonesia, P.R. China, Thailand and  India. The Divisia method is employed in this analysis.  The results reveal that the rising share in total industrial output of such less  energy intensive sectors as equipment products in Korea and China, and textile in  Thailand resulted in a decrease in the overall energy intensity of industry. On the other  hand, the industrial intensity in Indonesia has increased due to the development of  energy intensive sectors.
