Research on the Impact of Digital Infrastructure Construction on the Diffusion of Green Technology Innovation
Strengthening the diffusion of green technology innovation is an inevitable trend for China to realize the transformation of a low-carbon economy and green sustainable development.Selecting the Panel data of 31 provinces,autonomous regions,and municipalities in China from 2012 to 2021 to empiri-cally analyze the impact of digital infrastructure construction on green technology innovation diffusion.The results show that the construction of digital infrastructure can have a significant positive impact on the diffu-sion of green technology innovation.Among them,green total factor productivity and knowledge spillover play intermediary roles between digital infrastructure construction and green technology innovation diffu-sion.The threshold effect test results show that there is a non-linear impact between digital infrastructure construction and green technology innovation diffusion under the influence of industrial agglomeration level and industrial structure upgrading.Based on this,it is necessary to improve the system of digital infra-structure computing power network,build a platform for cross-regional knowledge elements flow,and col-laborate with multiple entities to release the efficiency of innovation achievements transformation,so as to depict the"new landscape"of innovation-driven green economic development.
