Surprisingly, the energy policies have no twofold mediation.Practical implicationsThe findings have important implications for policy and guide the practitioners to focus on digital efficiencies to attain higher competitive advantage in the light of environmental initiatives.Originality/valueAlthough past research has paid wide attention to the defined factors, but to the best of the author's knowledge, this is the first study in these domains.
