本論文は、2009年から2021年までの中国A株上場エネルギー集約企業のパネルデータを用いて、デジタル技術統合が低炭素転換に与える影響を実証分析した。テキスト分析で年次報告書のデジタル関連語頻度をデジタル統合度とし、LTFP法で低炭素転換度を評価。結果、デジタル統合は研究開発能力向上と運営コスト削減を通じて低炭素転換を促進することが明らかになった。大規模企業・非国有企業・中西部企業で効果が顕著であり、政策提言が行われている。
English
This paper empirically examines the effect of digital technology integration on low-carbon transformation in Chinese energy-intensive listed firms from 2009 to 2021. Using text analysis of annual reports for digital frequency and the LTFP method for low-carbon progress, it finds that digital integration significantly promotes low-carbon transformation by enhancing R&D innovation and reducing operating costs. Heterogeneity analysis shows stronger effects in large firms, non-state-owned enterprises, and firms in central/western regions. Policy suggestions are provided for external environment and internal capabilities.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
中国のエネルギー集約企業を対象とした実証研究だが、日本でも同様にデジタル技術活用による省エネ・低炭素化が注目されており、本論文の分析フレームワークは日本のGX実務にも応用可能性がある。特にSSBJ対応における非財務情報開示の中で、デジタル統合度と排出量削減の関連性を評価する際の参考となる。
In the global GX context
This study provides empirical evidence on how digitalization can drive low-carbon transformation in heavy industry, a critical sector for global decarbonization. While the data is China-specific, the methodology linking digital integration to emissions reduction through innovation and cost efficiency offers insights for global firms and policymakers seeking to leverage Industry 4.0 for climate goals. It complements the ISSB framework by highlighting operational levers for transition planning.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:The text-analysis approach for measuring digital integration and the LTFP method for low-carbon evaluation offer a replicable framework for studying digitalization's role in decarbonization across sectors and countries.
🏢実務担当者:Corporate sustainability teams can use the findings to justify investments in digital technologies as a means to reduce operational costs and enhance R&D capacity for low-carbon transition.
🏛政策担当者:Policymakers should consider supporting digital infrastructure and R&D incentives for energy-intensive firms, particularly for non-state-owned enterprises and firms in less developed regions, to accelerate industrial decarbonization.
📄 Abstract(原文)
This paper selects panel data of A-share listed firms in energy-intensive industries from 2009 to 2021. It uses text analysis to count the frequency of digital-technology-related words in annual reports to measure the level of corporate digital technology integration, and adopts the LTFP method to evaluate the low-carbon transformation progress of energy-intensive firms. The paper empirically tests the effect and internal transmission mechanism of digital technology integration on green and low-carbon transformation. The results show that digital technology integration significantly promotes the low-carbon transformation of energy-intensive enterprises, and this conclusion remains valid after a series of robustness tests. Mechanism analysis indicates that digital technology integration boosts low-carbon transformation mainly by enhancing corporate R&D innovation capacity and reducing operating costs. Heterogeneity analysis reveals that the driving effect of digital technology integration is more prominent in large-scale firms, non-state-owned enterprises, and firms in central and western regions. Based on empirical findings, this paper puts forward targeted policy suggestions from two aspects: optimizing the external institutional environment and building internal corporate capabilities.
