Abstract

Digitization has become a core engine for China’s energy companies to achieve green transition in a competitive marketplace. Using the panel data of China’s A-share listed energy companies, this study explores the impact of digitalization on energy companies’ green transition. The finding demonstrates that digitalization can significantly drive energy companies’ green transition. This finding remains valid following a series of robustness tests. Moreover, digitalization can indirectly enhance energy companies’ green transition by enhancing technological innovation and optimizing operational capacity. Further research demonstrates that the promoting effect of digitalization on green transition in the state-owned companies, growing and mature energy companies and companies in the east are more fully released. This research could assist policymakers and professionals in energy companies with decision-making references to promote green transition.
数字化对能源企业绿色转型的影响研究:来自中国的新见解
数字化已成为中国能源企业在激烈的市场竞争中实现绿色转型的核心引擎。本研究利用中国 A 股上市能源企业的面板数据,探讨了数字化对能源企业绿色转型的影响。研究结果表明,数字化能够显著推动能源企业的绿色转型。经过一系列稳健性检验,这一结论仍然有效。此外,数字化还能通过加强技术创新和优化运营能力间接促进能源企业的绿色转型。进一步的研究表明,数字化对国有企业、成长期和成熟期能源企业以及东部地区企业绿色转型的促进作用得到了更充分的释放。这项研究可以为能源企业的决策者和专业人士提供决策参考,促进绿色转型。
