摘要

随着中国政府将“数字化驱动绿色转型”提升为国家战略，数字创新生态系统（DIE）和绿色技术创新（GTI）已成为高质量发展的关键驱动力。然而，它们之间的关系尚不清楚。本文构建了DIE的多维框架，并用耦合协调度模型对其进行了评价。基于2011-2021年中国264个城市的面板数据，采用空间Durbin模型分析了DIE对GTI的影响以及环境规制的调节作用。结果表明，创新产业通过显著的空间溢出效应促进了本地和周边的GTI发展。其中，数字创新主体和环境子系统对GTI的提升作用显著，平台子系统对GTI的提升作用有限。ER减弱了DIE对GTI的正向影响，且存在区域异质性。本研究为DIE在促进可持续发展中的作用提供了新的经验证据，并为协调数字战略和环境战略提供了量身定制的政策建议。

Does the digital innovation ecosystem promote green technology innovation? Evidence from 264 cities in China

With the Chinese government prioritizing “digitalization-driven green transformation” as a national strategy, the digital innovation ecosystem (DIE) and green technology innovation (GTI) have emerged as key drivers of high-quality development. However, the relationship between them remains unclear. This paper constructs a multidimensional framework of DIE and evaluates it using a coupling coordination degree model. Based on panel data from 264 Chinese cities (2011–2021), the spatial Durbin model is employed to analyze the impact of DIE on GTI and the moderating role of environmental regulation (ER). The results indicate that DIE promotes local and neighboring GTI through significant spatial spillover effects. Among the DIE subsystems, the digital innovation subject and environmental subsystems significantly enhance GTI, whereas the platform subsystem exhibits a limited effect. ER weakens the positive impact of DIE on GTI, with regional heterogeneity observed. This study provides new empirical evidence on the role of DIE in advancing sustainable development and offers tailored policy recommendations for coordinating digital and environmental strategies.

期刊介绍： Technology in Society is a global journal dedicated to fostering discourse at the crossroads of technological change and the social, economic, business, and philosophical transformation of our world. The journal aims to provide scholarly contributions that empower decision-makers to thoughtfully and intentionally navigate the decisions shaping this dynamic landscape. A common thread across these fields is the role of technology in society, influencing economic, political, and cultural dynamics. Scholarly work in Technology in Society delves into the social forces shaping technological decisions and the societal choices regarding technology use. This encompasses scholarly and theoretical approaches (history and philosophy of science and technology, technology forecasting, economic growth, and policy, ethics), applied approaches (business innovation, technology management, legal and engineering), and developmental perspectives (technology transfer, technology assessment, and economic development). Detailed information about the journal's aims and scope on specific topics can be found in Technology in Society Briefings, accessible via our Special Issues and Article Collections.
