数字赋能企业绿色转型的影响研究——基于“宽带中国”战略的准自然实验
Research on the Impact of Digital Empowerment on Green Transformation of Enterprises—A Quasi Natural Experiment Based on the “Broadband China” Strategy

以数字赋能企业绿色转型，是实现经济高质量发展的必然要求。本文利用2010~2020年中国沪深A股上市公司数据，将“宽带中国”试点政策作为衡量数字经济的准自然实验，构建多期双重差分模型，实证探究数字赋能对企业绿色转型的影响。结果表明：数字赋能显著促进了企业绿色转型；在经过一系列稳健性检验后，这一结论依然成立。异质性分析结果表明，数字赋能只对东部地区和中部地区的企业绿色转型起促进作用；并且数字赋能能促进国有企业的绿色转型。此研究对促进数字经济赋能企业绿色转型，推动经济高质量发展具有重要借鉴意义。
Empowering enterprises to undergo green transformation through digital means is an inevitable requirement for achieving high-quality economic development. This article uses data from A-share listed companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen, China from 2010 to 2020, and uses the “Broadband China” pilot policy as a quasi natural experiment to measure the digital economy. It constructs a multi-period double difference model to empirically explore the impact of digital empowerment on green transformation of enterprises. The results indicate that digital empowerment significantly promotes the green transformation of enterprises; after a series of robustness tests, this conclusion still holds. The results of heterogeneity analysis indicate that digital empowerment only promotes the green transformation of enterprises in the eastern and central regions; and digital empowerment can promote the green transformation of state-owned enterprises. This study has important reference significance for promoting the green transformation of enterprises empowered by the digital economy and promoting high-quality economic development.
