Abstract

With the acceleration of global digitalization process and the deepening integration of the concept of sustainable development, how the enterprise digital transformation affects the performance of enterprise ESG and green technology innovation has become an important issue of common concern to the academia and the industry. Taking China's A-share listed enterprises in 2013-2022 as the empirical research sample, the influence mechanism of enterprise ESG performance from the perspective of resource basis on the performance of green technology innovation is explored. The research shows that: (1) Enterprise ESG performance, and its three dimensions of environment, society and corporate governance have significantly promoted the improvement of enterprise green technology innovation performance, among which, environmental responsibility has a stronger role in promoting the green technology innovation performance.(2) Digital transformation positively regulates the promoting effect of enterprise ESG performance on the performance of green technology innovation.(3) Heterogeneity analysis shows that the ESG performance of enterprises with different property rights and industries has different effects on promoting green technology innovation performance, while the ESG performance of state-owned enterprises, manufacturing enterprises and non-heavy pollution enterprises has a stronger role in promoting green technology innovation performance. This study expands the related research on enterprise ESG performance, and provides more feasible solutions for enterprises to improve the performance of green technology innovation.
