Deskripsi

This paper uses China’s provincial panel data from 1997 to 2015 to construct the Malmquist- Luenberger productivity indicators to measure the level of green biased technology progress, and measures the change in industrial structure based on indicators of low-carbon transformation, optimization and rationalization of industrial structure, and empirically tests the impact of green biased technology progress and industrial structure adjustment on China’s provincial carbon emission intensity. The results show that green biased technology progress can significantly exert the suppression effect of carbon emission intensity through the channel of low-carbon transformation of industrial structure.
