Ecological Efficiency Analysis in Zhejiang Province: Based on Improved Super-SBM Model

This paper use the super efficiency SBM-DEA model with undesirable outputs to calculate the ecological efficiency of Zhejiang Province from 2001 to 2018, and construct multiple linear regression model that evaluating the influencing factors of ecological efficiency based on it. The ecological efficiency of Zhejiang Province fluctuated and increased during the study period, which was mainly driven by pure technical efficiency. In the multiple regression analysis, it can be concluded that income factors, structural factors and institutional factors have a gradually weakening positive impact on ecological efficiency. This paper argues that Zhejiang Province should make full use of regional advantages, resource advantages and talent advantages on the basis of maintaining the current industrial level. It is advised to vigorously develop high-tech industries, strengthen international communications on knowledge and seek new economic growth points. Finally a higher level of coordination between economic development and ecological protection can be achieved.
