Abstract By the use of Meta frontier-DEA model, combined with Malmquist Luenberger index, this paper investigates the achievements of 29 Chinese provinces about win-win balance between environmental protection and economic development from the perspective of environmental efficiency. Both of the environmental technology heterogeneity and the potential efficiency between different provinces have been thoroughly analyzed. Simultaneously, the dynamic changes of the efficiency have also been considered. The empirical result shows that only a few provinces have achieved a win-win situation, the environmental technologies of provinces in three different groups present significant differences, both of the technical and management factors are important sources of potential environmental efficiency. These results can help local governments make related policy and promote coordinated development of environment management and technology progress, sequentially achieving a win-win balance between environmental protection and economic development.
