Abstract
Exploring the driving forces behind energy efficiency is crucial for developing low—carbon economies in developing countries. This study investigates the impact of land resource mismatch on city energy efficiency using panel data from 243 cities in China spanning from 2007 to 2019. A two—way fixed effects model is utilized to analyze the data. The study reveals several significant findings: (1) Land resource mismatch has a substantial negative impact on energy efficiency. (2) Land resource mismatch hinders the upgrading of industrial structure, impedes new—type urbanization, and inhibits economic agglomeration, which exacerbates the negative impact on energy efficiency. This study contributes to the literature by expanding the understanding of the impact of land resource mismatch on energy efficiency and provides a basis for local governments in developing countries to improve energy efficiency.
