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 relax the hypothesized homogeneity and linearity in traditional empirical models to investigate the effects of renewable energy technology innovation on China's green productivity, and the results of the partially linear functional-coefficient models show that the effect of renewable EH innovation on green productivity is significant only when the relative income level of a province passes a critical turning point.

TL;DR: In this paper, a modified two-stage approach is applied to estimate macroeconomic energy rebound effect (RE) with a data panel of 30 provinces in China during the period 1997-2015.

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as mentioned in this paper used an adapted stochastic frontier model to estimate the energy efficiency and rebound effect in the urban residential sector for China's 30 provincial-level regions.

TL;DR: In this paper , the impact of green production process innovation on green manufacturing production using a fixed-effect SFA model was investigated, and the authors showed that green manufacturing process innovation benefits green manufacturing, promoting sectoral carbon and energy efficiency.
