The Yangtze River Economic Belt, a key growth driver in China, faces energy-carbon challenges. Analyzing the impact of industrial restructuring on energy transition and emission reduction is crucial for its low-carbon transformation. This study first analyzed spatiotemporal patterns carbon emissions, intensity, structure decarbonization across YREB provinces from 2005 to 2021, then quantified impacts upgrading these dimensions by using spatial Durbin model with panel data, revealing heterogeneity mechanisms. Results show that: (1) U-shaped relationship exists between both intensity decarbonization, while it significantly lowers regional emissions; (2) analysis indicates effects intensify toward downstream regions, being pivotal mid-upstream mitigation. Accordingly, region-specific strategies are proposed: upstream areas should prioritize high-carbon substitution, ecological compensation, technological support; midstream regions adopt targeted policies green relocation efficiency enhancements accelerate upgrading; leverage innovation incentives service-driven restructuring. provides theoretical foundations tailored actionable insights achieving YREB’s development goals.

Urban–rural integration (URI) is essential to achieving sustainable development. However, the rural areas surrounding large cities typically have a scale and significant differences in development conditions. It necessary formulate policies by category better promote integrated between urban areas, stimulate vitality, create more opportunities for This study constructs an evaluation system under URI, using Xi’an metropolitan area as case study. A clustering algorithm enhanced random forest (RF)–principal component analysis (PCA)–partitioning around medoids (PAM) method applied evaluate comprehensively. Key findings this include following: (i) URI should be decoupled from administrative divisions, considering complex impacts of multi-town functional spillover; (ii) ecological environment, economic development, public service allocation, construction land supply are key factors influencing URI; (iii) overall index presents “high center, low east west” pattern. The with high Xianyang, while other show insufficient communication neighboring villages; (iv) can categorized into four types integration: ecological, ecological–economic, ecological–social–spatial, ecological–economic–social–spatial, which exhibit outward expansion layers extension along east–west axis spatial structure integration. Finally, differential suggestions promoting urban–rural put forward because different villages. paper provides framework formulating policies, significantly deepening
