Guided by the concept related to sustainable development, we investigate the effects related to the synergistic agglomeration development of productive service and manufacturing industries on regional green development, which is also an important path for promoting the global sustainable development process and achieving carbon neutrality goals. Using the panel data of 285 prefecture-level cities in China from 2011 to 2020 as the basis of our study, we focus on the impact of industrial synergistic agglomeration on the efficiency of regional green development and the mediating influence of technological innovation. Results show that (1) industrial synergistic agglomeration positively contributes to the improvement of regional green development efficiency level and is significantly positive at the 5% level, (2) technological innovation plays a mediating role in the process of promoting regional green development efficiency through industrial synergistic agglomeration and can better realise the green development effect of industrial synergistic agglomeration, (3) results of the threshold effect test show the nonlinear effect of industrial synergistic agglomeration on regional green development efficiency with a single threshold value of 3.2397, and (4) the effect of industrial synergistic agglomeration on regional green development efficiency shows significant variability under different geographical locations, city scales, and resource endowment conditions. On the basis of these findings, we propose corresponding policy recommendations for improving the quality of inter-regional industrial synergistic agglomeration and formulating differentiated policy guidelines to help regions achieve long-term sustainable development.
