Green finance plays a pivotal role in advancing sustainable urban development by enhancing energy efficiency and supporting low-carbon transitions. This study empirically demonstrates that green maturity (GFM), which reflects the effectiveness of financial systems, has significant positive impact on (UEE). Using panel data from Chinese prefecture-level cities spanning 2006 to 2021, analysis shows one-unit increase GFM improves UEE 0.221 standard deviations. Mechanism reveals this effect is primarily mediated through technological advancements improvements innovation capacity. Further heterogeneity highlights GFM's more pronounced non-resource-based regions characterized advanced greater global market integration, higher levels urbanization. These findings offer valuable, context-specific insights for policymakers seeking leverage as tool promote across diverse socio-economic institutional settings.

This article aims to identify and verify the actions taken by European Union companies related improving energy efficiency with requirements of Fit for 55 packages striving climate neutrality assessing degree implementation pro-ecological solutions, identifying key challenges, comparing differences in level transformation member states. attempts assess minimizing consumption reducing greenhouse gas emissions operating 27 countries, based on statistical data from Eurostat databases. To analyze obtained data, diagnostic–descriptive method, principal component analysis, multi-criteria MOORA method were used. The conducted research procedure indicates adaptation regarding goals resulting package adopted Union. Companies located France, Sweden, Finland demonstrate highest transformation. On other hand, a passive transition traditional fossil fuels renewable sources is characterizes Germany, Netherlands, Poland.

In the digital economy era, increasing government’s adoption and attention to technology is not only conducive accelerating improvement of governance capacity, but also an important measure achieve green economic development. This paper uses text analysis government at city level, then panel data econometric models estimate impact on carbon emissions reduction. The findings reveal that can significantly reduce dioxide by improving low-carbon governance, strengthening public’s attention, encouraging enterprises’ transformation. Further, mainly reduces from direct energy consumption, transportation electricity product. reduction effect affected degree marketization, high marketization helps reinforce effect. Moreover, there spatial heterogeneity in effect, it more significant eastern region. Our conclusions are implications for promoting China’s achieving high-quality sustainable
