The Effect of FDI Agglomeration on Carbon Emission Intensity: Evidence from City-Level Data in China

How to accelerate the reduction of carbon emissions in context “double carbon” target has become a key concern for all sectors society. This paper firstly analyzes influence mechanism foreign direct investment (FDI) agglomeration on emission intensity, from theoretical perspective. Then, based panel data 270 cities China 2006 2019, this uses ArcGIS software visually analyze spatial and temporal characteristics FDI constructs traditional fixed effect models econometric empirical analysis. The results show that, first, significantly positive impact intensity local neighboring with crowding effect. Second, level technological innovation can mitigate cities. Third, there is negative autocorrelation between Fourth, mainly concentrated central western regions. Based research conclusions, puts forward corresponding countermeasure suggestions.
