| Abstract |
Analyzing data from 285 Chinese cities for the period 2005-2016, we examined the impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) on low-carbon innovation, and explored smart city development's (SCD) moderating role. We found that FDI had a significant positive effect, while SCD played a positive moderating role. Specifically, SCD's moderating role occurred through three channels: information and communication technology, smart finance, and smart government. Moreover, SCD may maximize innovation advantages and facilitate low-carbon innovation resource flow into more efficient departments. Finally, FDI may improve low-carbon innovation, while SCD may maximize the spillover effect of FDI on low-carbon innovation. |
