Abstract This paper aims to explore whether the trend of digital transformation is driving companies engage in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices. The impact strategic on firms all‐encompassing, making it difficult capture mechanisms corporate ESG To this end, we construct a new theoretical framework that combines slack resources stakeholder theory. attributes heterogeneity practices differences ability willingness companies. Using data from Chinese listed companies, find improving performance. mechanism increases availability long‐term strengthens connection with stakeholders. However, there insufficient evidence contributes greater transparency disclosure. We also effect larger for less risk‐responsiveness international connections, but smaller political connections. Our findings affirm advantages contemporary trends offer investigate factors influencing

Dynamic interactions of carbon trading, green certificate trading, and electricity markets: Insights from system dynamics modeling

PLoS ONE, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 19(6), P. e0304478 - e0304478

Published: June 13, 2024

In the context of evolving landscape reduction in carbon emissions and integration renewable energy, this study uses system dynamics (SD) modeling to explore interconnected trading (CT), tradable green certificate (TGC) trading, electricity markets. Using differential equations with time delays, provides a comprehensive analysis structural relationships feedback mechanisms within between these Key findings reveal intricate interplay prices, prices under various coupling mechanisms. For example, three-market mechanism, stabilize around 150 Yuan/ton, while reach peak 0.45 Yuan/KWH, impacting which fluctuate 0.33 1.09 Yuan / KWH during simulation period. These quantitative results shed light on nuanced fluctuations market anticipated purchases sales volumes each market. The insights gleaned from offer valuable implications for policy makers stakeholders navigating complexities emission strategies, energy equilibrium. By understanding multi-market coupling, can better formulate policies strategies achieve sustainable transitions mitigate impacts climate change.

Modeling and Evaluating the Socio-Economic–Flood Safety–Ecological System of Landong Floodplain Using System Dynamics and the Weighted Coupling Coordination Degree Model

Water, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 16(17), P. 2366 - 2366

Published: Aug. 23, 2024

The lower course of the Yellow River is a “hanging river” across hinterland China, and safety its flood control measures/systems closely tied to stability nation. Ensuring high-quality, sustainable development floodplain while maintaining crucial for entire Basin. Previous studies have primarily focused on overall Basin or economic–ecological coupling cities along river, often neglecting floodplain. This study optimizes socio-economic–flood-safety–ecological (SFE) system typical downstream Landong within dynamics model (SDM) can simulate dynamic behavior SFE systems by constructing mathematical models that incorporate feedback loops time delays. primary components include causal loop modules stock-flow modules. Then, coordination degree established using comprehensive subjective objective weighting method, assessing system’s under five scenarios: inertial development, economic environmental protection, safety, development. results historical validity tests indicate SDM effectively system. suggest increases most scenario, indicating should not only focus socio-economic growth, but also consider ecological concerns. In addition, regulation from socio-economic, environment indicators are necessary achieve coordinated has significant implications policy formulation management high-quality in River.

PLoS ONE, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 20(1), P. e0316724 - e0316724

Published: Jan. 27, 2025

As the pace of enterprise digital transformation accelerates, intellectual capital (IC) has become a core driving force gaining market competitive advantages and enhancing value creation capabilities. The paper aims to investigate impact IC its components on financial performance Chinese ecological protection environmental governance companies during 2018–2021. In addition, moderating effect between them is examined. measured by modified added coefficient (MVAIC) model, measurement based text mining. results suggest that can improve firm performance, especially COVID-19. Physical capital, human (HC), relational (RC) positively affect while structural innovation capitals have no significant impact. strengthens positive relationship two elements (HC RC) performance. Heterogeneous analysis finds RC before COVID-19, it not For highly leveraged companies, negatively affects These impacts are for low companies. This provides some new insights managers who seek ways in process transformation.
