What is energy conservation & environmental protection?

The goal is to improve the awareness of energy conservation and environmental protection in building decoration projects and lay a solid foundation for creating an environmentally friendly and energy-saving living environment.

Does energy-saving policy affect environmental quality?

We examine the effects of the energy-saving policy on environmental quality. The policy has a significant synergistic effect on environmental quality improvement. The policy has a higher pollutant emission inhibition effect on large polluters. Promoting green technology innovation and environmental compliance are two main channels.

What are energy-saving policies?

Energy-saving policies are an important type of environmental regulation and aim to constrain energy consumption and improve energy efficiency. Carbon and pollutant emissions are both outputs produced by industrial enterprises (Jiang et al., 2020).

How can energy-saving and environmental governance work together?

In addition, to realize energy-saving and environmental governance effects simultaneously, energy-saving policies should take both big energy consumers and polluters as main regulated objects. Second, green innovation can reduce pollutant emissions while stimulating economic growth and is necessary for sustainable development.

How can energy-saving departments improve environmental quality?

First, energy-saving departments have formulated corresponding incentive and punishment mechanisms to enable the policy’s implementation. 22 Most importantly, state-owned enterprises are directly supervised by the governments and must comply with the T10000P, thus improving environmental quality.

Does the energy-saving policy promote green technology innovation?

We find that the energy-saving policy can significantly promote green technology innovation, thus improving environmental quality. Advanced green technologies are important for meeting the T10000P’s energy-saving targets.
