| Abstract | The digital transformation in developing countries is crucial in determining whether environmental regulations can better facilitate green technological innovation. This paper constructs a theoretical model to deduce the relationships among digital transformation, environmental regulations, and green technological innovation. Empirical research is conducted using a two-way fixed-effects model and a threshold regression approach, based on provincial panel data from China spanning the years 2013 to 2020. The results indicate that environmental regulation inhibits green technological innovation. However, digital transformation, by reducing cost pathways, can promote the efficiency of green technological innovation under environmental regulation. This moderating effect exhibits a nonlinear threshold characteristic. Regarding dimensions of digital transformation, the level of digital investment shows no threshold, while both the level of digital application and the scale of digital integration exhibit threshold effects. Presently, in China, digital transformation effectively incentivizes green technological innovation under environmental regulation. Therefore, increasing digital investment, advancing digital applications, and fostering digital integration are inevitable choices to drive green technological innovation under the pressure of environmental regulation. |
