Abstract As a new economic form, the digital economy (DE) significantly impacts green development. However, the impact of the DE on green total factor productivity (GTFP) remains controversial. A two-way fixed effect model is constructed to explore the impact of DE on green development. It is found that (1) there is a U-shaped relationship rather than a positive relationship between DE and GTFP. (2) Industrial intelligence and e-commerce are essential for DE to affect GTFP. (3) The DE affects GTFP mainly by promoting efficiency progress rather than technological progress. In addition, in regions where government attention to the DE is higher than others, the DE substantially contributes to GTFP. The potential of integrating the DE and the real economy needs to be further tapped. This paper presents pertinent policy suggestions and provides new empirical evidence and valuable reference for promoting green development.
