Abstract

This study uses the super efficiency DEA model to evaluate the logistics industry’s total factor energy efficiency in various Chinese provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities, and examines the relationship between environmental regulations and the total factor energy efficiency. The results show that environmental regulations can help improve the logistics industry’s total factor energy efficiency. This study further analyzes the threshold effect of environmental pollution control investment level, quality of labor, and logistics industry development level in environmental regulations on the logistics industry’s total factor energy efficiency. The results showed that the level of investment in environmental pollution control in environmental regulations has a significant single threshold effect on logistics industry’s total factor energy efficiency. The quality of labor has a significant double threshold effect on environmental regulation’s impact on the logistics industry’s total factor energy efficiency. Logistics industry development level has a significant double threshold effect on the impact of environmental regulation on logistics industry’s total factor energy efficiency.
