The statistical populationconsists of Iranian industries including 21 industries (two-digit isic code) is investigated over the period of 1995-2007. In this study, using direct distance function and the effect of energy price on the extent of technology change and pollution using productivity change index (PCI) is investigated by specified model. The results indicate that there is no relationshipbetweentechnological changes andrelative prices of Iniran energy during the studied period.
