As China’s digital economy sectors rapidly expand, the growing demand for coal-based electricity has become a significant source of CO 2 emissions. However, mechanism driving these emissions within supply chains remain unclear, hindering targeted carbon management. This study addresses this gap by providing comprehensive analysis thorough whole chain perspective, covering income-, production-, betweenness-, and consumption-based perspectives, along with upstream downstream paths. It employs Leontief Ghosh input-output (IO) frameworks structural path analysis. The results indicate: (1) core industry sector (CIDE) ranks highest in from while industrial digitalization (IDS) both consumption- betweenness-based perspectives. (2) Inter provincial flows are main sectors’ embodied labor compensation is primary its enabled income-based perspective. (3) High-carbon paths driven short, power heat production IDS playing crucial roles chains. Based on findings, policy recommendations provided to optimize structures, promote green consumption, integrate management into sector-specific strategies reduce across

Green development has become one of the important concepts leading China’s economic developments, and it is extremely meaningful to boost continuous growth agricultural green total factor productivity (AGTFP) achieve construction a powerful country. Using provincial data from 2011 2020, this manuscript calculates AGTFP through SBM–GML model, digital finance (DGF) comprehensive indicator system. The double fixed-effect quantile model spatial Durbin are used for in-depth study benchmark influence, nonlinear effect spillover DGF on AGTFP. main research conclusions article as follows: (1) significantly conducive improvement Along with AGTFP, promoting gradually increased. (2) In terms impact path, can properly promote while role degree digitization not very significant. Meanwhile, channel technology efficiency. (3) varies spatially, more effective in regions higher well-developed modernization. (4) There DGF’s which means that simultaneously local neighboring regions.

Digitization plays a vital role in fostering economic and social development. This study empirically investigates the impact of digitization on urban industrial structures, technological innovation, public service levels, social–ecological resilience. Various approaches, including two-tier stochastic, spatial econometric, panel threshold models, have been employed to analyze data from 287 cities 2008 2023. These are examined through quasi-natural experiment analyzing evolution resilience following China’s promotion national comprehensive pilot zone for big data. The findings as follows. (1) positive effects ecological substantially outweigh negative effects, with an overall increasing trend net effect, albeit significant regional differences. (2) Digitalization exhibits spillover enhancing local while inhibiting improvements neighboring cities. (3) Technological innovation levels positively affect resilience, whereas structure upgrading has indirect effect. Both demonstrate nonlinear under constraints intermediary mechanism. (4) In terms policy mechanisms, differences structure, capacity, must be considered. approach is essential promoting organic integration across regions, mitigating polarization diffusion

Based panel data 2243 counties China from 2011 2021, article empirically examines how promotes common among regions spatial spillover effects economy. findings suggest that, first, geographic distance matrix reveals positive relationship between prosperity, phenomenon geo-graphic agglomeration is observed, which manifests itself high-high-low aggregation. Second, had an that transcends space, enabling both “expand cake” “share more equitably. Third, coordinated, inclusive, structurally optimizing help achieve by upgrading level public services promoting structure. Ultimately, long-term county economies innovation-driven optimized resource allocation.
