Abstract

Abstract: Under the new normal, the economic growth model of resource and environment consumption is unsustainable, and improving ecological efficiency has become an inevitable choice for high-quality economic development. Based on this, on the basis of constructing the input-output evaluation system of ecological efficiency at the city scale, this study uses DEA-Malmquist model to calculate the ecological efficiency and its dynamics of 9 cities in Fujian Province from 2009 to 2018. The results show that there are differences in ecological efficiency among different regions in Fujian Province, and the ecological efficiency of Fuzhou, Xiamen and Ningde all reach the best level. The ecological efficiency of inland areas in Fujian Province is obviously lower than that of coastal areas such as Fuzhou and Xiamen, which indicates that the coordination between inland areas and coastal areas should be strengthened. In addition, the coordination degree of regional production management and technological progress in Fujian Province is not high. Therefore, when the governments at all levels of Fujian Province plan the industrial development strategy, they should fully consider the development path suitable for improving the ecological efficiency, and finally realize the development strategy that green water and green mountains are the golden mountains and silver mountains.
