Abstract:As a national strategy, green innovation is of great significance. Based on the perspective of cities and urban agglomerations, taking 284 cities from 2013 to 2020 as research samples, this paper uses the coupling coordination degree model to study the spatial characteristics of the coordination between green innovation and economic development. It is found that: firstly, the coupling coordination between green innovation and economic development is continuously improving. Improving green innovation is the key to improve the coordination level between green innovation and economic development. Secondly, from the perspective of cities and urban agglomerations, the coupling and coordination between green innovation and economic development presents the characteristics of spatial differences. The research conclusion is helpful to improve the green innovation driven economic development strategy.
