Research on the Influencing Factors and Transformation Path of Logistics Enterprise Low-Carbon Performance

Abstract

Purpose - This study expounds that logistics enterprises should make use of an information-sharing mechanism, benefit distribution mechanism, and government guarantee mechanism to optimize and balance resource allocation with cooperative participants. Design/Methodology/Approach - This study developed a theoretical research model with interface management analysis, interface resource allocation, and interface management measures as independent variables; an interface connection mechanism and collaborative innovation capability as intermediary variables; and the low-carbon performance of enterprises as a dependent variable based on the structural equation model (SEM) and the empirical test, by selecting a certain number of logistics enterprises nationwide as research objects. Findings - This study discloses that elements such as interface management analysis, interface resource allocation, interface management measures, interface connection mechanism, and collaborative innovation capability contribute proportionally to the low-carbon performance of logistics enterprises. Meanwhile, the interface connection mechanism plays an intermediary role in the impact of interface management analysis and interface management measures on the low-carbon performance of enterprises. Research Implications - This study proposes that the collaborative innovation capability of enterprises should be improved through various interface management measures, and that R&D and the application of low-carbon technology and equipment must be accelerated, thus promoting the improvement of the low-carbon performance of enterprises, and enabling a low-carbon transformation in logistics enterprises, and even the whole logistics industry, so as to help achieve the carbon peak and move toward carbon neutrality as soon as possible.
