China’s Yangtze River Delta region has banned the approval of new thermal power projects except for combined heat and power (CHP) generation and is promoting technological innovation in CHP. However, technological innovation of energy technology has been evidenced to be often affected by spatial elements. The role of spatial agglomeration in the energy industry on technological innovation has not been discussed in the context of CHP. Therefore, this article studied the spatial agglomeration and evolution characteristics of CHP technological innovation point elements through the Global Moran's index, kernel density analysis, and thermal map analysis and analyzed the influencing factors and changes by the spatial regression model. The results show that environmental regulation and high-tech park agglomeration are the key factors influencing CHP technological innovation. This indicates that future policy making needs to consider the economic factors of green development and the role of high-tech parks in innovation.

The relationship between tourism activities and water ecological degradation has become a challenge that cannot be ignored. However, only few studies have evaluated the sustainability of waterfront tourism. This paper takes the West Strait of China, which is rich in ecological resources, as the research object, constructs the evaluation framework of waterfront ecotourism through two rounds of expert consultation, and determines the weights of the following indicators based on Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation (FCE): Waterfront Tourism Design (0.112), Ecotourism Experience (0.034), Aquatic Ecological Knowledge Sharing (0.147), Pro-Water Culture (0.238), Pro-Water Identity (0.134), Aesthetic Value of Water Landscape (0.128), Pro-Water City Brand (0.036), Infrastructure Construction (0.061), Regional Economic Development (0.046), Folkway Support (0.028), Government Policy Support (0.036). Data collection in the 5 core cities in West Strait shows that Pro-Water Culture (U4) had the most significant impact, followed by Aquatic Ecological Knowledge Sharing (U3). Pro-Water City Brand (U7) and Folkway Support (U10) have negligible effects on waterfront ecotourism. The weight range distribution is relatively average except for the four above mentioned indicators.
