Abstract

Digitalization and low-carbon development are parallel in the digital economy. In what ways does the development of low-carbon economy can be contributed by the digital transformation of enterprises? This paper analyzes the impact of digital transformation on carbon emissions from a micro perspective. Based on unbalanced panel data from 278 listed companies between 2010 and 2018, a double fixed-effect model is used to test the overall effects of digitalization on carbon emission intensity, the intermediary role of green technology innovation capacity and the regulatory effect of absorptive capacity. Results show that digital transformation of enterprises contributes to the reduction of carbon emission intensity, green technology innovation capability partially mediates the impact of digital transformation on carbon emission intensity, and absorptive capacity moderates the impact of digital transformation on green technology innovation capacity. Based above, this paper puts forward corresponding countermeasures from the aspects of digitalization, greening and low carbon.

企业数字化转型对碳排放强度的影响研究——一个有调节的中介模型

数字化与低碳发展在数字经济中是并行的。企业数字化转型对低碳经济的发展有哪些贡献?本文从微观角度分析了数字化转型对碳排放的影响。基于2010 - 2018年278家上市公司的非平衡面板数据，采用双固定效应模型检验数字化对碳排放强度的整体影响、绿色技术创新能力的中介作用和吸收能力的调节作用。结果表明:企业数字化转型有助于降低碳排放强度，绿色技术创新能力部分中介数字化转型对碳排放强度的影响，吸收能力调节数字化转型对绿色技术创新能力的影响。在此基础上，本文从数字化、绿色化、低碳化等方面提出了相应的对策。
