Abstract
The objective of “carbon peak” and “carbon neutrality” poses new challenges for China's economic development, where government promotion of firm carbon emission efficiency is an urgent issue to address. Using a sample of Chinese A-share listed firms from 2013 to 2022,this study explores the impact of government support on firm carbon emission efficiency and the mediating role of firm green innovation. Findings indicate that government support can significantly promote carbon emission efficiency, and firm green innovation mediates the effect of government support on firm carbon emission efficiency. Additionally, government support had a stronger positive impact on firm carbon emission efficiency in non-state-owned firms than state-owned firms.
