Government market regulation is an important measure to overcome market failure. Most previous studies have classified regulation as a factor that directly affects the decision-making of green technological innovation of enterprises (EGTI); however, there has been no systematic analysis of the effects of market regulation on EGTI performance. This study constructs a Stackelberg game theory model of endogenous EGTI to analyze the economic benefits and waste emissions of enterprises in five research scenarios covering different decision methods and regulatory types. Using the linear programming method, different intensities and types of regulation are assigned to different performance optimizations. The sensitivity of various exogenous variables to the economic benefits and waste emissions of enterprises in different scenarios are also analyzed. The results show that government market regulation can significantly improve levels of EGTI and that it is affected by cooperation between enterprises. In centralized decision-making scenarios, system emissions will decrease and system economic performance will improve. Under market regulation, irrespective of decision type, the system's economic performance will improve. For waste emissions of enterprises, market regulation under centralized decision-making can reduce the effects, and market regulation under independent decision-making can increase the effects. With the introduction of market regulations, and for any type of decision, the intensity of waste emissions decreases. In the competitive regulation decision scenario, both the system's waste emissions and its economic benefits are minimized. These results show that promoting cooperation between different enterprises can effectively reduce waste emissions and improve economic performance; different regulations have different effects, and there is a quantitative-offset effect. This study contributes to greater understanding of these effects by building a game model of endogenous EGTI, simulating the equilibrium level under five different scenarios, and analyzing the relationship between economic benefits and waste emissions under different scenarios.

How to escape the dilemma of charging infrastructure construction? A multi-sectorial stochastic evolutionary game model

Junqiang Li, Hao Ren, Mingyue Wang

Summary: Establishing effective charging infrastructure is a crucial step in promoting electric vehicles and improving environmental sustainability. Findings show that the private sector tends to adopt defector strategy quickly, cost-sharing in public-civil construction scenario positively impacts the public sector, and civil sector has directional differences in strategy adoption under different cost-sharing scenarios.

The Heterogeneous Relationship between Pollution Charges and Enterprise Green Technology Innovation, Based on the Data of Chinese Industrial Enterprises

Mingyue Wang, Yingming Li, Zitong Wang, Junqiang Li

Summary: The study finds that the pollution charge policy has an impact on enterprise green technology innovation, promoting process improvement in reducing industrial wastewater emissions and inhibiting end-of-pipe technology innovation to some extent. It also observes a dynamically adjusted U-shaped relationship between pollution charges and certain green technological innovation. Additionally, the study reveals that larger enterprise solid assets result in a stronger inhibiting effect of asset depreciation on adopting the green process innovation strategy.

Cross-regional collaborative governance in the process of pollution industry transfer: The case of enclave parks in China

Junqiang Li, Jiangquan Wang, Hyoungsuk Lee, Xin Zhao

Summary: In order to promote the effectiveness of cross-regional collaborative governance of pollution firm transfer, a stochastic evolutionary game model involving three sectors was proposed and three paths of collaborative governance were investigated. The findings indicate that additional relocation subsidies have the most remarkable effect in encouraging cooperation strategy, increasing environmental costs plays a key role in promoting quick cooperation, and a cost-sharing mechanism involving only two sectors is ineffective in reducing defection during the regulation process.

Comparison of ethane recovery processes for lean gas based on a coupled model

Xing Liu, Qiuchen Wang, Yunhao Wen, Long Li, Xinfang Zhang, Yi Wang

Summary: This study analyzes the characteristics of process parameters in three lean gas ethane recovery processes and establishes a prediction and multiobjective optimization model for ethane recovery and system energy consumption. A new method for comparing ethane recovery processes for lean gas is proposed, and the addition of extra coolers improves the ethane recovery. The support vector regression model based on grey wolf optimization demonstrates the highest prediction accuracy, and the multiobjective multiverse optimization algorithm shows the best optimization performance and diversity in the solutions.

A novel deep-learning framework for short-term prediction of cooling load in public buildings

Cairong Song, Haidong Yang, Xian-Bing Meng, Pan Yang, Jianyang Cai, Hao Bao, Kangkang Xu

Summary: The paper proposes a novel deep learning-based prediction framework, aTCN-LSTM, for accurate cooling load predictions. The framework utilizes a gate-controlled multi-head temporal convolutional network and a sparse probabilistic self-attention mechanism with a bidirectional long short-term memory network to capture both temporal and long-term dependencies in the cooling load sequences. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method, which can serve as an effective guide for HVAC chiller scheduling and demand management initiatives.

The impact of social interaction and information acquisition on the adoption of soil and water conservation technology by farmers: Evidence from the Loess Plateau, China

Zhe Chen, Xiaojing Li, Xianli Xia, Jizhou Zhang

Summary: This study uses survey data from the Loess Plateau in China to evaluate the impact of social interaction on the adoption of soil and water conservation (SWC) technology by farmers. The study finds that social interaction increases the likelihood of farmers adopting SWC, and internet use moderates this effect. The positive impact of social interaction on SWC adoption is more pronounced for farmers in larger villages and those who join cooperative societies.
