“…It incorporates non-desired outputs, such as resource consumption and environmental pollution, into the measurement framework. GTFP is a comprehensive evaluation of the degree of coordination between the economy and the environment and is an important indicator of green development [ 71 , 72 ]. There are many studies that uses green total factor productivity to measure high-quality development.…”

“…In addition, the core requirement of the LCPP is to improve production efficiency and reduce pollution emissions. The agglomeration effect resulting from the clustering of economic activities can be facilitated by increased productivity [ 71 , 72 ]. Adequate economic agglomeration can reduce the marginal cost of investment, thus encouraging green investment and increasing the firm’s GTFP [ 24 , 74 ].…”

Carbon emissions have become a global challenge, and China, as the world’s largest developing country, has a serious emissions problem. Developing green buildings is an important way of reducing carbon emissions. China’s low-carbon city pilot policy may be an effective way of promoting green building development and reducing these emissions. This study uses the low carbon city pilot policy as a quasi-natural experiment and employs the staggered difference-in-differences method to investigate its impact on green building development. The results show that the low-carbon city pilot policy promotes green building development, and this policy promotes it by enhancing regional green innovation capacity, improving green total factor productivity at the firm and regional levels, and reducing the financing constraints of firms in the construction and real estate sectors. In addition, the promotion effect of the policy on green building development is stronger in western and non-resource-based regions and large-scale cities in China. This study contributes to the literature related to environmental policy, green building, and carbon emissions and supports the promotion of green building development and the reduction of carbon emissions.
