On Low-Carbon Logistics Efficiency of Regions along the Silk Road Economic Belt
In the context of China's carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals,the low-carbon logistics efficiency along the Silk Road Economic Belt has become an issue worth studying.This study selected data from provinces along the Silk Road Eco-nomic Belt from 2010 to 2020,analyzed their low-carbon logistics efficiency from both static and dynamic perspectives by us-ing three-stage DEA and global Malmquist index and analyzed its influencing factors by using Tobit regression.The research has found that excellent regional technological level can effectively reduce redundancy in low-carbon logistics investment,and a reasonable industrial structure can effectively reduce waste of manpower investment.The overall low-carbon logistics effi-ciency along the Silk Road Economic Belt shows a wave like development trend with the distribution characteristics of"high ef-ficiency in the middle and low efficiency at both ends"in each region.The integration of infrastructure construction,import val-ue of goods,and energy utilization all play a role in promoting low-carbon logistics efficiency.Traditional infrastructure con-struction and purely new-type infrastructure have an inhibitory effect on low-carbon logistics efficiency.In the future,it is of great necessity to actively promote the digital transformation of the traditional logistics industry,further optimize the energy structure,and promote the high-quality development of low-carbon logistics.
