Additionally, Wu et al. used a spatial Durbin model to assess the impact of industrial upgrading on the carbon balance in the Yangtze River Economic Belt, finding more pronounced effects in midstream and downstream regions. Cai et al. further identified a moderating effect of industrial structural upgrading on carbon emissions.
The Yangtze River Economic Belt (YREB) serves as a pivotal engine for China’s economic growth. As one of the three major national strategies for optimizing economic development patterns and spatial restructuring, it occupies a strategically vital position in the regional development framework.
It is attributed to the fact that the downstream Yangtze River Delta, with its higher economic development and industrial upgrading, has improved regional energy productivity growth and efficiency improvements in key industries.
Due to the vastness of the Yangtze River Basin, notable disparities in industrial organization and energy utilization exist among the upstream, midstream, and downstream areas.
