20.500.12556/DKUM-98845 Research on collaborative emission reduction between ports and shipping companies in the context of new energy Collaborative decarbonization between ports and shipping companies is critical to the low-carbon transition of maritime supply chains. Driven by the new energy transition, vertical technology spillovers have become a key force shaping vertical collaborative emission reduction. However, the mechanisms through which spillovers affect strategic interactions remain unclear, the theoretical basis for emission reduction strategies is insufficient, and practical issues such as benefit sharing and coordination mechanisms are underexplored. To fill these gaps, this study makes three contributions. Theoretically, we incorporate vertical technology spillovers and joint benefit–cost sharing into the port–shipping collaborative emission reduction framework, enriching supply-chain-level spillover theory. Methodologically, we combine an evolutionary game model with a scale-free network to simulate strategy diffusion and conduct scenario comparisons, linking theoretical modeling with industrial practice. Empirically, we confirm that ports act as leaders in collaborative decarbonization, and port-centered resource allocation drives the systemic low-carbon transition of the maritime sector. The findings show that the share of agents adopting active emission reduction strategies first rises and then falls with vertical technology spillover intensity, peaking at a moderate level. The impacts of core factors vary significantly across spillover scenarios. Port-centered resource allocation and benefit distribution are crucial to improving overall participation willingness. Ports are not merely participants but irreplaceable coordinators in the maritime supply chain. These results provide targeted policy and practical guidance for ports and shipping companies to promote global green and low-carbon maritime development. new energy port–shipping companies collaborative emission reduction technology spillover evolutionary game complex network nova energija sodelovanje pristanišč in ladijskih družb pri zmanjševanju emisij prelivanje tehnologije evolucijska igra kompleksno omrežje true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2026-07-13 11:49:18 2026-07-13 11:49:19 2026-07-14 03:06:54 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2026 0 0 str. 1-34 issue 7, [article no.] 3345 Vol. 18 2026 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 2026-02-10 2026-03-27 2026-03-30 656.6:502.14 282498819 10.3390/su18073345 2071-1050 https://www.mdpi.com/2071-1050/18/7/3345 1 1eb65f1b-7ea0-11f1-a5fa-00155d580e34 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=208190 RAZ_Shen_Lixin_2026.pdf RAZ_Shen_Lixin_2026.pdf 1 ED14B321EB01FD0848F275B78EF8555A 4fd292d8c0cc0ae139a98b0968e9ddab21342e24d8c16c918fd825581b34b942 94d3c079-7ea0-11f1-a5fa-00155d580e34 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=208191 Fakulteta za logistiko 0 0 0
