Urban Green Innovation and New Urbanization in 284 Chinese Cities, 2011-2022

Panel data from 284 Chinese cities spanning 2011 to 2022, used to analyze the impact of New Urbanization (NEU) on the quantity and quality of urban green innovation (GI). The dataset was created by Liang Fang and published on figshare under a CC-BY-4.0 license. It contains results from two-way fixed-effects and multivariate moderation models, last updated in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling the impact of New Urbanization on green innovation quantity based on city-level panel data.
• Analyzing the moderating effect of digital inclusive finance on green innovation quality.
• Investigating threshold effects of government green support on urbanization's influence.
• Empirical validation of policy interactions between urbanization, technology support, and regional economic development.

Strengths

• Panel data covers 284 cities over a 12-year period (2011-2022).
• Statistical model results show coefficients significant at the 0.01 level.
• Published under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license.

Limitations

• The dataset is very small at 9.5 KB, suggesting it contains summary results rather than raw data.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
