本研究は、43か国のパネルデータを用いて、デジタル化が貿易に伴う国内エネルギー消費（TDEC）に与える影響を実証分析した。付加価値分解アプローチにより新たなTDEC指標を構築し、デジタル投入の浸透度が1%増加するとTDECが約1.5%減少することを示した。また、グリーン全要素生産性の向上、エネルギー構成の最適化、輸出構造の高度化という3つの経路を特定した。
English
This study empirically analyzes the impact of digitalization on trade-embedded domestic energy consumption (TDEC) using panel data from 43 economies. Constructing a novel TDEC indicator via value-added decomposition, it finds that a 1% increase in digital input penetration reduces TDEC by about 1.5%. Three channels are identified: green total factor productivity, energy mix optimization, and export structure upgrading.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Escalating trade-driven energy consumption poses a critical barrier to global climate targets, yet the role of digital transformation in mitigating this pressure remains underexplored. This study develops a theoretical framework and empirically investigates the nexus between digitalization and trade-induced domestic energy consumption (TDEC) using a cross-country panel of 43 economies from 2000 to 2014. Applying a value-added decomposition approach within a multi-regional input-output framework, we construct a novel TDEC indicator and find that a one-percentage-point increase in digital input penetration is associated with an approximately 1.5% reduction in TDEC. Mechanistic analysis identifies three operative channels: enhancing green total factor productivity, optimizing the energy mix, and upgrading export structures. Notably, foreign-sourced digital inputs exert a stronger dampening effect than domestic ones, and the mitigating impact is particularly pronounced in upstream segments of global value chains. These findings underscore the decarbonization potential of digitalization and offer actionable insights for reconciling trade expansion with energy conservation.
