Abstract:Energy consumption is facing the dual pressure of meeting economic growth and reducing energy consumption,making it urgent to improve total factor energy efficiency.The collaborative development between digitalization and greenization emphasizes technological innovation,which helps promote the advancement and application of energy technologies.Technological progress can lead to more efficient and environmentally friendly methods of energy production and utilization,thereby improving total factor energy efficiency.Based on the data of A-share manufacturing listed companies from 2012 to 2022,this study empirically examines the impact of the collaborative development between digitalization and greenization on the total factor energy efficiency of manufacturing enterprises.The results show that there is a "U"-shaped relationship between the collaborative development between digitalization and greenization and the total factor energy efficiency of manufacturing enterprises,which is firstly inhibited and then promoted.The collaborative development between digitalization and greenization promotes the total factor energy efficiency of manufacturing enterprises through neutral and biased technological progress.Therefore,we should accelerate the collaborative development between digitalization and greenization,continue to improve technological innovation,strengthen policy guidance to improve the total factor energy efficiency of manufacturing enterprises.
