| Summary/Abstract |
Local governments have replaced the national ministries that are in charge of various industries to become the primary implementer of energy-saving policies in China since 2000. This paper employs a case study-based approach to demonstrate the significance of local governments' policy measures in assisting industrial enterprises with energy-saving activities in China. Based on the longitudinal case of the Jasmine Thermal Electric Power Company, this paper hypothesizes that sub-national governments have played a major role in implementing energy-saving policies in China since the 11th Five-year-plan period. A wide range of provincial and municipal agencies collaborated in implementing five types of policy measures - informational policy, skill building, improved enforcement of central directives, price adjustment, and funding - that reduced barriers to energy saving and motivated active pursuit of energy-saving activities at industrial enterprises. The case study demonstrates how an enterprise and local governments work together to achieve the enterprise's energy-saving target. The authors will investigate the hypothesis of this paper in the context of multiple case studies that they plan to undertake in the future.

| Summary/Abstract |
Green innovation is of great significance to promote high-quality growth of the national economy and reduce the load on the ecological environment. This study constructs a two-stage SBM-DEA model including energy and undesirable output to measure green innovation efficiency. Tobit model is used to analyze the impact of input variables and influencing factors. The main results are as follows: achievement transformation, technology development and green innovation efficiency in each region all show a trend of fluctuating growth, and green innovation efficiency in the eastern region has always been in a leading position. The total current volumes of R&D personnel and government support strength have a positive relationship and the intensity of R&D funding and environmental protection investment has a negative relationship with the technology development. The number of patent applications and the openness degree to the outside world are positively related to the achievement transformation, and the investment of new products and energy is negatively related to the achievement transformation. Through the comparative analysis of the innovation efficiency differences among different regions, the paper analyzes the main influencing factors, and puts forward countermeasures and suggestions to provide certain theoretical reference for the sustainable and healthy development of China's various regions.
