The transformation and upgrading of industrial structure in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region plays an important supporting role in improving energy efficiency. This study determined the selection of industrial variables and indicators in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region, and constructed a panel regression model to measure the impact of industrial structure upgrading on energy efficiency in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region. According to this study, the ratio of the added value of the tertiary industry to the added value of the secondary industry in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region increases by 1%, and the energy efficiency increased by 0.2339%. From an industrial perspective, the energy efficiency of the primary industry would be improved by 8.01% for every 1% increase in the ratio of the output value of planting industry to the output value of forestry, animal husbandry and fishery industry; the energy efficiency of the secondary industry would be improved by 1.609% for every 1% increase in the ratio of the output value of high-tech manufacturing to the total output value of the secondary industry; and the energy efficiency of the tertiary industry would be improved by 0.212% for every 1% increase in the ratio of the output value of the service sector to the output value of the circulation sector. Finally, according to the research results, against the background of "carbon dioxide peaking and carbon neutrality", further countermeasures and suggestions were put forward to promote the upgrading of the industrial structure and improve the energy efficiency in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region.
