Examining Whether Government Environmental Regulation Promotes Green Innovation Efficiency-Evidence from China's Yangtze River Economic Belt

Feng Wu et al.

Summary: This study measures the green innovation efficiency of the Yangtze River Economic Belt and analyzes the impact of government environmental regulations on this efficiency. The results show that mandatory environmental regulations and financial subsidies for green innovation positively promote regional green innovation efficiency, while government investment in environmental governance has a negative impact. Moreover, this negative impact turns into a positive effect when it exceeds a certain threshold. There is also significant regional heterogeneity in the impact of environmental regulations on green innovation efficiency, with greater impacts on downstream provinces and cities.

The co-integration identification of green innovation efficiency in Yangtze River Delta region

Juying Zeng et al.

Summary: The research identified the co-integration of green innovation efficiency and its determinants in 26 cities in the Yangtze River Delta region in China from 2011 to 2017. It found that the region experienced a growth in green innovation efficiency and showed pioneering efforts in ecology. Expenditures on technology and education directly influence green innovation efficiency, while factors like foreign direct investment and education proportion in local fiscal budget have negative effects on the co-integration of green innovation efficiency in the region.

Green technology innovation and financial development: Do environmental regulation and innovation output matter?

Chengchao Lv et al.

Summary: This study combines financial structure, scale, and efficiency to examine the relationship between financial development and green technology innovation in 30 provinces of China from 2003 to 2017. The findings suggest that financial structure is conducive to green technology innovation, while financial scale and efficiency have a negative impact on it. Additionally, environmental regulation plays a moderating and mediating role in this relationship.

Can environmental regulation promote urban green innovation Efficiency? An empirical study based on Chinese cities

Fei Fan et al.

Summary: The study reveals significant regional disparities in green innovation efficiency in Chinese cities, with the efficiency increasing in the East, remaining stable in the Central region, and decreasing in the West. Urban green innovation efficiency exhibits significant spatial autocorrelation and spillover effects. Furthermore, environmental regulation has a positive U-shaped relationship with urban green innovation efficiency, which can be strengthened by improving educational resources, industrial structure, and economic development.

Spatial effect of environmental regulation on green innovation efficiency: Evidence from prefectural-level cities in China

Jing Li et al.

Summary: This study examines the impact of environmental regulation (ER) on green innovation efficiency (GIE) in prefecture-level cities in China from a spatial correlation perspective. The empirical results show that GIE first declined and then increased, with a significant spatial spillover effect of ER on GIE showing a U-shaped impact. Shorter official tenure and lower enterprises' profitability weakened the impact of ER on GIE. The government should strengthen regional cooperation, improve public environmental supervision, and formulate stringent but differentiated ER based on local conditions.
