摘要

能源安全是国家经济稳定和增长的重要组成部分。鉴于当前技术的局限性，改进管理策略对保障能源资源至关重要。数字技术在提高管理效率方面发挥着举足轻重的作用，从而为能源安全做出贡献。作为现代化的关键因素，智慧城市利用数字解决方案推动城市发展，并有可能催生能源革命。然而，能源安全与智慧城市之间的关系仍未得到充分探索，从而在政策制定和实施方面造成了差距。本研究利用 2012 年、2013 年和 2015 年颁布的智慧城市试点政策，以 229 个地级市为样本，时间跨度为 2010 年至 2020 年。研究采用倾向得分匹配差分（PSM-DID）模型，评估了智慧城市政策对能源抵御能力的影响。研究结果表明，智慧城市政策通过优化资源配置、升级产业结构和促进技术进步三条途径显著增强了能源抵御能力。值得注意的是，智慧城市政策对财政支出低、人口多、资源型、人力资本高、地处东部地区的城市更有利。本研究有助于完善和推广智慧城市政策，从而提高能源抵御能力，实现城市可持续发展。

Can smart cities improve energy resilience? Evidence from 229 cities in China

Energy security is a crucial component of national economic stability and growth. Given current technological limitations, improving management strategies is essential for safeguarding energy resources. Digital technologies play a pivotal role in enhancing management efficiency, thus contributing to energy security. As a key element of modernization, smart cities leverage digital solutions to drive urban development and have the potential to catalyze an energy revolution. Nevertheless, the relationship between energy security and smart cities remains underexplored, creating gaps in policy-making and implementation. This study, leveraging the smart city pilot policies enacted in 2012, 2013, and 2015, utilizes a sample of 229 prefecture-level cities covering the period from 2010 to 2020. Employing the Propensity Score Matched Difference-in-Differences (PSM-DID) model, the research assesses smart city policies’ impact on energy resilience. The results show that smart city policies significantly enhance energy resilience through three separate pathways: optimizing resource allocation, upgrading industrial structure, and promoting technological progress. Notably, smart city polices have more beneficial effects on the city characterized by low fiscal expenditure, being populous, resource-based, having high human capital, and being located in eastern region. This study aids in the improvement and promotion of smart city policies, thereby enhancing energy resilience and achieving sustainable urban development.
