As global attention to climate change continues to heat up,reducing urban carbon emissions has become an important issue for my country to achieve green development.Based on panel data of 261 prefec-ture-level cities in my country from 2007 to 2021,a double difference model and mechanism test are used to empirically analyze the impact of innovative industrial cluster pilot policies on urban carbon emissions and their mechanism.Empirical research has found that innovative industrial cluster pilot policies can significantly curb urban carbon emissions.The heterogeneity test found that the innovative industrial cluster pilot policy has sig-nificant inhibitory effect on urban carbon emissions in the eastern region and non-resource-based areas.Mechanism testing shows that technological innovation and industrial structure upgrading are two ways for in-novative industrial cluster pilot policies to promote urban carbon emission reduction.Therefore,relevant sug-gestions are put forward to give full play to the cluster effect to expand the scope of innovative industrial clus-ters,actively promote the upgrading of industrial structure and technological innovation in various cities,and adopt classified implementation strategies for cities with different development levels and resource endow-ments.
