Abstract: Abstract This paper explores how green finance promotes industrial upgrading and analyzes its heterogeneity across different regions. The study in this paper shows that green finance drives industrial upgrading through mechanisms such as capital guidance, technological innovation incentives, and risk prevention and control, but its effectiveness is affected by factors like regional economic foundations, industrial structures, and policy implementation capabilities. Among them, the eastern region has achieved remarkable results in green finance due to its sound financial system and optimized industrial structure; while the central and western regions have relatively limited effectiveness because of weak infrastructure and insufficient policy implementation. The research reveals the key role of green finance in promoting the development of high-value-added industries and emphasizes the need to formulate differentiated policies based on regional characteristics. Finally, the core conclusion drawn in this paper is that green finance drives industrial upgrading through both technological and structural pathways, but there is significant regional heterogeneity.
