现行的成本加成天然气定价机制使得气价过低，导致消费端大量补贴，导致天然气过度消费。本文运用价格缺口法和投入产出分析技术，定量分析了2007年我国取消天然气补贴情况下对城镇居民的直接和间接影响。结果表明，天然气价格将上涨33.3%~41.6%，居民消费支出将上涨0.26%~0.33%。低收入群体受影响较大，应实行差异化补贴，提高补贴效率。
The current cost-plus natural gas pricing mechanism makes the gas price too low, resulting in a lot of consumer-side subsidies and over-consumed natural gas. This paper applies the price-gap approach and input-output analysis technology to quantitatively analyze both the direct and indirect effects on urban residents under the condition that natural gas subsidies are cancelled in China in 2007. It is shown that the gas price will increase by 33.3%–41.6%, and the residential consumption expenditure by 0.26%–0.33%. The low-income groups are mostly affected, so different subsidies should be implemented to make subsidies more efficient.
