| Abstract | The fast-paced growth of the logistics industry has contributed significantly to China's high-quality economic development. However, the growth of the logistics industry is frequently accompanied by high levels of pollution, carbon emissions, and energy consumption. How to increase low-carbon logistics capacity has emerged as a research hotspot under the dual carbon goals. This study used entropy weight TOPSIS to evaluate the low-carbon logistics capacity and dynamic fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) to shed light on the antecedent conditions that influenced low-carbon logistics capability by using panel data from 30 Chinese provinces between 2008 and 2021. Based on the empirical results, several conclusions are drawn: (1) The comprehensive score show that while province low-carbon logistics capacity varies, most of them exhibit a general growing tendency in most provinces, where Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Guangdong and Zhejiang rank among the top five. (2) Three configurations, digital empower capital intensive type, digital empower labor intensive type, and green ecology plus technology innovation type that lead to better low-carbon logistics capacity. Related policy recommendations are proposed, including strengthening the synergistic development of the digital economy and the logistics industry, promoting research and development of green and innovative technologies, and reinforcing the constraints of the dual-carbon target. |
