Research on the Impact of Digital Economy Development on Energy Conservation and Emission Reduction Efficiency:Based on Super-Efficient SBM and Tobit Models
Based on the panel data of 29 provinces and municipalities in mainland China from 2006 to 2019,this paper empirically analyzes the impact effect and mechanism of Development of Digital Econ-omy(DDE)on Energy Conservation and Emission Reduction Efficiency(ECERE).Research shows that the DDE has played a positive role in ECERE.The results of mechanism test show that marketiza-tion development and energy structure optimization are effective ways for DDE to promote ECERE.In addition,the advanced industrial structure,human capital accumulation and environmental regulation are conducive to improving the ECERE.However,urban expansion and excessive dependence on for-eign trade are not conducive to the improvement of ECERE.
