摘要：
In the global effort to combat climate change and achieve sustainable development, advancing sustainable energy in the power sector has gained substantial attention. However, financing these initiatives remains a significant challenge. Green finance emerges as a promising solution, particularly in China. This research empirically investigates the impact of green finance on China's investments in sustainable energy utilities. Our findings highlight the effectiveness of green finance in driving the growth of sustainable energy generation, particularly in the wind and solar power sectors. Furthermore, green finance indirectly promotes sustainable energy generation by fostering green technological innovation.
