摘要：

We investigate the impact of digital transformation on green innovation based on the data from listed companies in heavily polluting industries in China from 2010 to 2020. Our findings reveal that under the joint action of crowding-out and synergistic effects, digital transformation has a Ushaped impact on green innovation. The results withstand multiple robustness checks. The heterogeneity test shows that the digital transformation of companies in the mature stage can better promote green innovation. Our results supplement the literature on digital transformation and green innovation, and provide theoretical implications for corporate sustainability.
