Digital-Intelligence Integration Empowerment and Green Transformation of Manufacturing Enterprises
As a key path to promote the green transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing enterprises,digital-intelligence integration plays an important role in the development of digital China and a manufacturing power.Taking China's A-share manufacturing listed companies from 2007 to 2021 as the research object,this study comprehensively uses the text analysis method,the coupled co-ordination model,and the threshold effect model to empirically test the impact and mechanism of digital-intelligence integration on the green transformation of manufacturing enterprises.The results show that the integration of digital and intelligence has a significant enabling effect on the green transformation of manufacturing enterprises,and that this result still stands after a series of robustness tests.The integration of digital and intelligence empowers manufacturing enterprises with green trans-formation through green cognition and green innovation.The promotion effect of digital-intelligence integration on green transformation of enterprises is greater in the state-owned enterprises and the heavily polluting enterprises.The impact of digital-intelligence integration on the green transformation of enterprises presents a non-linear characteristic,with a threshold effect.Therefore,in order to fully leverage the empowering role of digital-intelligence integration in the green transformation of manufac-turing enterprises,technologies such as artificial intelligence,Internet of Things,cloud computing,and big data should be used to improve enterprise management,strengthen corporate green awareness,pro-mote corporate green innovation,and build a new model of digital-intelligence integration empowering green transformation.It is also required to leverage the demonstration effect of state-owned enterprises,continue to deeply implement the digital economy development strategy,actively promote the achieve-ment of the"dual carbon"strategy goals,and promote the green transformation of enterprises with"digitalization and intelligence"as the core.
