摘要：

This study assesses the impact of electricity market reforms on the total factor productivity (TFP) of Chinese firms. Based on data on Chinese listed firms from 2011 to 2021, we employ the difference-in-differences method to test our hypothesis. We find that electricity market reforms improve TFP among firms in the electricity industry by easing market segmentation. This positive effect is particularly pronounced in firms that are state-owned, located in non-provincial capital cities, or led by CEOs with foreign experience or who are younger. This study contributes to the existing literature on the effects of electricity market reforms at the firm level and provides implications for improving productivity.
