“…Chen et al [47] achieved a similar conclusion. Zhang et al [48] indicated the effect of digital technology development on reducing domestic embodied carbon intensity by analyzing the panel data of regions in China. Similarly, Lyu et al [49] pointed out that digital transformation had significant promotion on the development of low-carbon technology.…”

“…As digital technology progresses, the ability of host countries to make use of advanced technologies is enhanced, and it will result in a declining trend in energy consumption. The deep integration of digital elements with conventional industries can decrease carbon emissions Frontiers in Environmental Science frontiersin.org intensity by facilitating technological innovation, alleviating resource distortion, upgrading industrial structures, and accelerating the accumulation of human capital (Lin and Zhou, 2021;Zhong et al, 2022;Zhang et al, 2023). Based on innovation and signaling theory, participating in GVCs enhances the flow of digital elements, which is beneficial for technology spillovers.…”

“…It is estimated that approximately a quarter of global carbon emissions are derived from international trade, with a serious asymmetry in environmental costs between developed and developing countries (Peters et al, 2011;Huang and Zhang, 2023). Therefore, participating in GVCs in a more environmentally friendly way is becoming increasingly important, among which improving energy efficiency is regarded as key to balancing steady economic growth and carbon emissions reduction (Sun et al, 2019;Zhang et al, 2023).…”

“…(3) Green development. From the perspective of macro level, Zhang et al find that the development of digital technologies indirectly reduces domestic embedded carbon intensity by reducing the intensity of energy consumption and increasing the input intensity of foreign services [20]. From the perspective of micro level, Yuan & Pan find that digital technology applications can effectively promote green innovation in firms and that the green innovation effect of digital technology applications is stronger in state-owned enterprises and firms in highly competitive industries [21].…”
