Energy security has become the focus of common attention of all countries in the world. It is an effective way to promote the transformation of energy consumption structure from fossil energy consumption to renewable energy consumption at present. Based on the current development status of China, this paper mainly studies the spatial evolution process of the traditional energy and the renewable energy industry in Hebei province from the perspective of space and time, and analyzes the influencing factors in this process. The results are as follows: (1) Moran's I of the traditional energy industry increased from 0.254515 in 2005 to 0.289301 in 2021. Moran's I of the renewable energy industry increased from 0.31409 in 2005 to 0.426467 in 2021. This indicates the energy transition in Hebei is progressing. It is worth noting that the wind and solar energy industries are both higher than the national average; (2) the spatial diffusion effect of the energy industry in Hebei province becomes more and more significant with the transformation of regional energy industry, forming a spatial distribution trend of southwest to northeast axial diffusion; (3) from 2005 to 2018, the number of green productivity factors affecting the development of both traditional and renewable energy industries increased from 2 to 6. The transformation process of the energy industry in Hebei province is influenced by different factors in different temporal stages. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
