As a comprehensive energy transition reform strategy, China's new demonstration city (NEDC) pilot policy aims to accelerate the transformation from fossil fuel-based system more sustainable system. Employing unique data on firms' consumption National Tax Survey Database, this paper investigates how NEDC affects utilization efficiency based difference-in-differences model. We observe that construction reduces intensity (ECI) in cities. After using instrumental variable approach deal with endogeneity problems, conclusions still hold. The mechanism analysis reveals decrease ECI is driven by offering tax incentives enterprises and prompting them pursue technological innovation. Heterogeneity shows negative impact prominent for SOEs high-energy-consuming enterprises; we also effect pronounced firms resource-based cities old-industrial-based Our results provide implications initiating policies other countries improve performance.

Abstract Fintech, as the fusion of finance and technology, has not only transformed traditional financial industry contributed to reshaping real economy. But also, it holds potential offer a feasible solution for achieving green sustainable development. This paper investigates impact Fintech on corporate carbon emissions (CCEs) by using data from National Tax Survey Database (NTSD). The results suggest that development leads reduction in CCEs. Our findings remain robust even after instrumental variable approach alleviate endogeneity problems. mechanism analysis reveals reduces CCEs via alleviating financing constraints, improving energy efficiency, promoting innovation. Heterogeneity demonstrates dramatically decreases coal consumption, while increasing consuming power gas energy. Additionally, state‐owned foreign companies experience more pronounced through compared those private firms. Furthermore, firms eastern middle regions are vulnerable Moreover, enterprises non‐high‐tech industries high‐polluting exhibit noteworthy performance reducing adoption. research offers policymakers path effectively govern achieve their targets.
