Abstract

The entropy weight method is used to quantify the amount of provincial digitization based on China's provincial panel data from 2014 to 2019. Finally, the spatial Durbin model is used to assess empirically the influence of digitalization on economic green development and its spatial spillover effect. The SBM model is utilized to measure the efficiency of economic green growth. It has been shown that there is a spatial relationship between China's provinces’ economic green growth and digital development. Every 10% increase in the province's digital development level will, assuming other influencing factors stay constant, not only raise the average level of economic green growth in the province by 9.524%, but will also indirectly raise the level of economic green growth in neighboring provinces by 8.818%. Based on the empirical findings, this study suggests optimizing the digital industrial structure and fostering the free flow of data elements in order to support China's economy's green development.
