Understanding the evolution of low-carbon efficiency in urban built-up areas is essential for developing countries striving to meet sustainable development goals. However, mechanisms driving and associated pathways remain underexplored. This study applies Global Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model, Malmquist-Luenberger Index, econometric models evaluate its determinants across China's from 2010 2022. The findings reveal a significant increase efficiency, 0.555 0.785 2022, reflecting an overall improvement 41.4% (P < 0.05). Spatially, demonstrates pronounced "east-high west-low" distribution, highlighting regional disparities spatial correlations. Temporal changes are primarily driven by technological advancements shifts frontier. disproportionate gains during periods high resource input suggest inefficiencies production factor allocation, particularly densely populated centers. Unlike natural endowments, concentrated inputs such cities often impede improvements. underscore need context-sensitive strategies, as one-size-fits-all model may not address diverse challenges posed disparities. By leveraging market optimize allocation strengthen interregional connectivity, this provides actionable insights promoting land economies.
