ABSTRACT
Consumer behavior is an important factor influencing the green production of enterprises from
the demand side, in order to explore the game relationship between producers and consumers under
the government’s double subsidy policy, the article combines the factors affecting the choice of consumers
and producers, and based on the replication of dynamic equations, constructs a game model
of the evolution of production behavior and consumption behavior and a simulation to analyze the evolution
of the system. Through an in-depth analysis of the Chinese refrigerator market, we explore how different
parameter settings affect the choice of strategies for system evolution. These parameters include
the initial probability, the multiple ways of subsidies provided by the government, the product price,
the perceived value of consumers, and the value of perceived loss. The results of the simulation experiment
show that the whole system is more likely to evolve in the direction of green production and green
consumption if firms have a stronger initial willingness toward green production and consumers are
more inclined to green consumption. In addition, when the government implements both purchase subsidies
and production subsidies, it can push the system to reach a steady state more quickly than if only
a single subsidy measure is used. At the same time, price changes of different types of refrigerators
can affect the evolution strategy of the system in different ways. After a series of analyses, we finally
provide feasible suggestions for promoting green production by enterprises and green consumption by
consumers, and at the same time, make a certain contribution to the reduction of air pollution.
