文章摘要：

Although scholars have explored the effects of learning, competition, and geographic proximity in the diffusion process, extant theories have not paid enough attention to the roles of the change agents. This study proposes an Agent Network Diffusion (AND) model that explicitly models how leadership transfer networks, a complex system of policy makers’ career paths, could potentially channel the diffusion of energy performance. With longitudinal data on energy governance performance in Chinese provinces, we empirically test the Portable Innovation Hypotheses using Spatial Autoregressive Models with Temporal Lags. The results demonstrate that leadership transfer networks channel performance innovation between locations where policy makers served/serve, especially when the institutional environments are similar between the locations. This study contributes to the literature on energy policy, diffusion of innovations, management performance, and policy networks by proposing and testing a network-based explanation for energy policy diffusion with novel empirical methods.
