共生共荣:工业智能化发展与包容性绿色增长

Symbiosis and co-prosperity:industrial intelligence development and inclusive green growth

为满足人民公平地分享经济发展成果的现实需要,城市经济建设应立足于环境和经济协调发展,即城市应以更加绿色、更具包容的路径实现高质量发展。在第四次工业革命浪潮下,以工业机器人应用为表征的工业智能化为推动中国城市绿色包容发展提供了契机。该研究在构建全域Malmquist-Luenberger指数科学测算城市包容性绿色增长水平的基础上,基于2007—2020年国际机器人联合会(IFR)的工业机器人应用数据和中国城市层面数据,运用多种模型实证考察工业智能化发展对城市包容性绿色增长的影响效应和内在机制。研究发现:①工业智能化发展显著促进了城市包容性绿色增长,该影响在财政支持水平较低、信息基础设施建设水平较高以及创新创业活力较大的城市表现更为明显,且在地理区位特征呈现出明显的异质性;②就作用渠道而言,工业智能化主要通过促进数字技术创新和产业结构优化两种渠道实现;③工业智能化发展对城市的包容性绿色水平提升具有正向的空间溢出效应,如果能有效实现带动作用,区域可持续发展能力将有效提升。该研究力图丰富有关工业智能化发展促进城市包容性绿色增长的经验证据和实证,为城市智能制造发展和经济包容性绿色增长提供政策参考。

In order to meet the practical needs of the people to equitably share the fruits of economic development,urban economic construction should be based on the coordinated development of the environment and the economy,which means that high-quality ur-ban development should be realized through a greener and more inclusive path.Under the wave of the fourth industrial revolution,in-dustrial intelligence,characterized by the application of industrial robots,provides an opportunity to promote the green and inclusive de-velopment of Chinese cities.Based on the construction of the Malmquist-Luenberger index to scientifically measure the level of inclu-sive green growth in cities,this study empirically examined the impact of industrial intelligence development on inclusive green growth and its internal mechanisms based on industrial robot application data from the International Federation of Robotics(IFR)from 2007 to 2020 and city-level data in China using various models.The study found that:①Industrial intelligence significantly contributed to in-clusive green growth in cities,and the effect was more obvious in cities with lower financial support,a higher level of information infra-structure construction,and greater innovation and entrepreneurial dynamics,demonstrating significant heterogeneity in geographical lo-cation characteristics.②As far as the channels of action were concerned,industrial intelligence was mainly realized through the chan-nels of promoting digital technology innovation and industrial structure upgrading.③The development of industrial intelligence had a positive spatial spillover effect on the enhancement of the inclusive green level of cities.Furthermore,if the driving effect could be effec-tively realized,the regional sustainable development capacity would be effectively enhanced.This paper seeks to enrich the empirical evidence and empirical research on the benefits of industrial intelligence development in promoting inclusive green growth in cities and to provide policy references for the development of smart manufacturing and inclusive green economic growth in cities.
