Taking Jiangmen city in Guangdong province as a case study, this research examines the integration mechanism and practical logic of multi-dimensional governance resources under the "dual carbon" goals, while exploring the logic and practical paths of compound governance. The study finds that Jiangmen has constructed a multi-level governance system through the path of "policy coordination—market activation—technology empowerment": (1) Breaking through departmental barriers via institutional complexity, anchoring low-carbon targets through cross-level policy integration, and forming closed-loop management based on dynamic responsibility decomposition and performance evaluation. (2) Driving resource integration through tool complexity, innovating market incentive mechanisms, and activating motivations for enterprise low-carbon transformation and social participation. (3) Strengthening system coordination via technological complexity, establishing a digital supervision platform to promote data sharing among government, enterprises, and society, thereby achieving precise monitoring and dynamic feedback of carbon emissions. The study indicates that compound governance achieves synergistic enhancement through institutional resilience, tool adaptation, and technology embedding, ultimately realizing the embedded mutual promotion of environmental benefits and socio-economic development. Furthermore, the study suggests that compound governance should be refined in aspects such as practical efficacy, resilience adjustment, and value integration, providing theoretical and practical paradigms for achieving the "dual carbon" goals.
