Abstract
Ports are not only an important driving force for the growth of the world economy but also the main energy-consuming unit and pollution source in the world. Under the new global energy crisis and environmental deterioration situation, the international port community has put forward the concept of green port development. As a guide, the government’s environmental regulation strategy can directly affect green port construction through market incentive or command control means and can also indirectly affect green port construction through the intermediary role of green innovation, industrial agglomeration and green logistics. Considering the strategic choices of the government, port enterprises and transportation enterprises, this paper constructs a tripartite evolutionary game model and considers whether the government carrying out environmental regulation is affected by the fine income and management cost, whether the willingness of port enterprises to carry out green port construction is determined by the extra construction cost and income and whether transportation enterprises choose green port logistics transportation depending on the extra income they receive. In the process of tripartite cooperation, the government’s environmental regulation, port enterprises’ green port construction and transportation enterprises’ choice of the green port logistics transportation mode constitute the most ideal strategy combination. Finally, the paper puts forward some suggestions for the strategy selection of the three parties in order to promote the realization of the ideal strategy combination and provide a theoretical reference for the construction of green ports.

The compliance cost for the remaining port enterprises to meet the environmental regulation standards will inevitably increase. If they can obtain environmental subsidies from the government, it will directly reduce taxes and fees; alternatively, if the transportation enterprises have a high awareness of environmental protection and are willing to pay extra environmental expenses and share the increased compliance cost, withdraw from the field, so the whole port industry will face a situation of reshuffle

Summary
In 2019, when General Secretary Xi Jinping inspected Tianjin Port, he pointed out that “the economy needs to develop and the country needs to be strong. In the process of building green ports, it is ideal to cooperate with each other It is one of the goals of the present stage to promote the construction of green ports in China and to develop world-class ports through reasonable environmental regulation strength and means. How can the government use environmental regulation means to supervise the green construction behavior of port enterprises, guide shipping enterprises to continue to adopt port logistics and realize the ideal “cooperation” dynamic adjustment mechanism of government guidance, port enterprises’ implementation and shipping enterprises’ response? Favorable conditions can be created for guiding the three parties to make positive strategies so as to realize the equilibrium of tripartite joint construction of green ports, promote the high-quality green development of ports and help the port industry achieve the goal of carbon peak and carbon neutrality
