Drawing on panel data of China's 30 selected provinces from 2005 to 2017, this paper examined the effects of industrial structure adjustment (IA) effects on low-carbon ecoefficiency (LCE). We utilised the Super-slack-based Measure (Super-SBM) to evaluate China's LCE and the Industrial structure advancement (ISA) and rationalisation (ISR), as an integrated part of IA, were selected to conduct the effect's examination adopting the Spatial Durbin Model (SDM). Our results indicate that the proposed Super-SBM model could effectively rank the SBM-efficiency provinces. However, the regional economic development did not follow a low-carbon pattern and LCE performance among regions and provinces was extremely uncoordinated, thus, forming a significant spatial distribution pattern. In addition, the SDM results proved that IA was a crucial channel for China to develop a low-carbon economy. In contrast, the comparative analysis showed that ISR could be regarded as an essential pathway for most provinces to sustain LCE growth compared with ISA. © 2022. All Rights Reserved.
