| Since the reform and opening up, China’s industrial economic growth is rapid, within only 50 years which is faster to reach the same goal than western countries’ 100 years, but the cost of resource and environment is huge. The extensive traditional high input, high consumption, high emission, low efficiency growth pattern makes our country’s resources and environment carrying capacity close to the limits of industrial development, which seriously restricted the sustainable development of industrial economy. The Yangtze River Delta area engaged in Low-value added industries over a long period of time, The technical content of Zhejiang private enterprises and Jiangsu foreign subcontracting enterprises is low, and the path of low cost to win has come to the end. In addition, resources and energy like land, electricity, water, human in the Yangtze River Delta area are gradually nervous, Therefore, as China’s comprehensive economic strength of the strongest region, the Yangtze River Delta region Should further play its advantages on location, excellent natural endowments, culture, education, strong economic strength and other advantages, take the lead in seeking economic transformation and upgrading.this paper mainly discussed the industry transformation and upgrading in Yangtze River delta on the background of low carbon economy, Firstly, we discussed the low carbon economy trend and the relationship between industrial transformation and upgrading and low carbon economy, then from 5 level of industrial structure changes, secondary industrial structure changes,energy consumption and carbon emissions changes, advanced development coefficients in industry segments we determined the status of Industry Transition and upgrading in Yangtze River delta, Then based on the existent low carbon economy evaluation index system and the party’s construction of index system of industrial spirit about the harmonious development of ecological civilization, we evaluated and compared the overall level and subdivision level respectively coupling effect analysis of low carbon economic development and upgrading of industrial transformation.Then the paper uses multiple regression analysis to study the influence factors of industrial transformation and upgrading in the Yangtze River delta, results show that Capital stock, human capital, the level of opening up, energy low carbon degree of industrial transformation has different extent promotion effect to upgrading, and the capital stock plays the key role. Finally the paper put forward the keys of industrial transformation and upgrading for the three tier cities are respectively: speeding up the energy revolution, upgrading the manufacturing technology content, improving the market economic system and counting on the synergistic effect of attention to the capital market. |
