TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the impact of green technology innovations on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions based on a data panel covering 71 economies from 1996 to 2012, and found that green technology innovation does not significantly contribute to reducing CO2 emissions for the economies whose income levels are below the threshold while the mitigation effect becomes significant for those whose incomes levels surpass the threshold.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that green technology innovations can only take effects for economies with high income, and it is difficult to find significant evidence that green technologies positively impact carbon productivity in less developed economies.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors estimate the heterogeneous impacts of environmental regulation on green technology innovation and industrial structure in 105 Chinese environmental monitoring cities through the partially linear functional-coefficient panel models.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the effect of environmental regulation on technological innovations based on the provincial panel data of industrial sectors in China during the years 2005-2015, and found that industries with a higher degree of market competition and higher human capital investment tend to have stronger technological innovation capabilities.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper employed a newly developed non-radial directional distance function to evaluate China's regional energy and CO2 emission performance for the period 1997-2009, and analyzed the impact of China's market-oriented reform on China's region energy and carbon efficiency.
