Research on the Selection of Industrial Organization Pattern in Western Regions under Low-carbon Economy Background

An enterprise benefit model is built up in this paper on the basis of economic and technical elements as well as ecological resource elements to study the enterprise benefit issue of two industrial production and organizat ion patterns, the cluster production and circulatory production from the double perspectives of economic benefit and ecological benefit. The results suggest that the economic benefit of traditional cluster production is notably superior to that of circulatory production and the ecological benefit of circulatory production is in turn notably superior to that of the traditional cluster production. Based on the respective strong points of the abovementioned industrial production and organization patterns, a new industrial organization pattern, i.e. circulatory industrial cluster pattern enabling the uniform optimization of economic and ecological benefits is brought forth in this paper. Under the background of low-carbon economy, this pattern is the best approach to the construction of green growth pole in western regions. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
