Research on the Mechanism of Energy-Saving Technology Innovation in Energy Service Companies

Abstract:

This paper analyzed the moderating effect of COP’s identity and COP’s competition between network structure of COP and energy-saving technology innovation. The empirical analysis illustrates that the relationship between the COP’s relation strength and energy-saving technology innovation is fully mediated by COP’s identity and COP’s competition, and the relationship between the COP’s status disparity and energy-saving technology innovation is partly mediated by COP’s identity and COP’s competition.
