The findings are as follows. i) can significantly conclusion still holds after series robustness tests. ii) improve by promoting technology innovation. This finding supports Porter Hypothesis. iii) Heterogeneity analysis shows that eastern region. On contrary, there is no significant effect central western regions. government should expand scope implementation according local conditions.
