Free QuoteFirst, the increase of REI scale can expand the economy and lead to more energy consumption and more carbon dioxide emissions. Besides, increasing REI scale can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by promoting the transformation of the energy structure (Li and Qi, 2011) and reducing the energy intensity (Robert et al., 2013). This shows that REI
