Abstract

Investing in improving green total factor productivity is a fundamental way to realize the transformation and upgrading of China's green economy and sustainable development, and the positive fiscal policy of tax reduction and fee cuts plays a crucial role in promoting green growth. Based on the panel data of 234 prefecture-level cities in China from 2006 to 2020, this paper measures green total factor productivity and conducts regression analysis. The results show that tax cuts and fee reductions have a significant effect on green total factor productivity, and this regions and low-carbon cities influence this effect.
