Study on the Synergistic Development of "Smart + Green" Logistics Industry in Chongqing

Abstract

Under the background of "digital economy" and "double carbon", logistics industry, as a typical industry with high input, high energy consumption and high emission, is imperative for its intelligent and green transformation. Chongqing, located in the southwest, is an important logistics hub, and the synergistic development of its logistics industry "smart + green" is of great significance to the economic growth and high-quality development of the industry. This paper constructs the index system for the synergistic development of smart logistics and green logistics, and analyzes the development level of smart logistics and green logistics as well as the level of coupling coordination in Chongqing from 2010 to 2022 by using entropy value method and coupling coordination degree model, with the aim of providing a reference for the government to improve the logistics policy as well as the active development of the logistics industry. The study shows that the overall development level of smart logistics and green logistics in Chongqing is on the rise, and the gap between the two is gradually narrowing, and the development level is gradually changing from green logistics development to synergistic development. The development trend of the coupling coordination degree of smart logistics and green logistics is good, and the coupling coordination degree gradually develops into high-quality coordination, and the trend of the coupling coordination degree is consistent with the trend of the development level of smart logistics, and smart logistics has a stronger role in promoting the synergistic development of the two. Among the subsystems, the scale of development, transportation capacity and digitization level in smart logistics and the level of resource utilization and energy use efficiency in green logistics are the short boards restricting the coordinated development of smart and green logistics, and the coordinating role between the subsystems needs to be strengthened.
