Title Spatial spillover effects and driving factors of regional green innovation efficiency in china from a network perspective

Abstract The spatial spillover effect of regional green innovation efficiency (GIE) is a heated issue of academic research; however, it has rarely been discussed from a network perspective. It is pretty meaningful to clarify its spatial association network's evolutionary rules and driving factors. To fill the lack of research, this study measures the regional GIE in China from 2010 to 2019 using an epsilon-based metric (EBM) model that considers undesirable outputs. A modified gravity model and social network analysis (SNA) method are used to analyze the evolutionary rules and spatial spillover effects of the network structure of GIE, and a quadratic allocation process (QAP) was employed to identify its driving factors. The findings reveal that: 1) China's regional GIE has a geographic correlation network structure with a low network density (peaking at 0.210 in 2018) and an annually increasing slow trend. 2) The network structure is relatively loose and has a certain hierarchical gradient, with "dense in the eastern " and "sparse in the western " characteristics. 3) The eastern provinces are at the relative center position and play a leading role in the network; the central, western, and northeastern regions are relatively inferior and play a fulcrum and conduction role. 4) Spatial adjacency, the differences in infrastructure, urbanization, and economic development level positively affect the spatially correlated regional GIE. In contrast, differences in environmental regulations and differences in science and technology innovation (STI) have negative effects. Finally, from the perspectives of national, regional, block, and driving factors, several recommendations are made to enhance the overall improvement and balanced development of regional GIE in China.
