Digital innovation and carbon intensity: Dual mediating role of technological spillover and industrial agglomeration

Puntos clave

• A significant reduction in carbon intensity is linked to advancements in digital innovation and green technology.
• Key evidence shows that a 30% increase in digital innovation correlates with an approximate 12% decrease in carbon intensity.
• Observational analysis examines how technological spillover and industrial agglomeration influence carbon intensity at a national level.
• Implications highlight the need for policy shifts to support digital innovations that lower carbon footprints.
