The energy effect of blockchain technology innovation in the Industry 5.0 Era: From the perspective of carbon emissions
Published 2025-01-01“…On this basis, the relationship between the enterprises’ blockchain technology innovation and the intensity of fossil energy consumption has been discussed. The study found that (1) the enterprises’ blockchain technology innovation is able to reduce the intensity of fossil energy consumption, and this conclusion remains valid via controlling for endogeneity and upon the completion of the robustness test. (2) In terms of the mechanism, the enterprises’ blockchain technology innovation can achieve energy transition by reducing the cost of internal control, strengthening external supervision, improving the efficiency of resource allocation, and strengthening the channels of supply chain management. (3) Further research has found that the energy effects as a result of blockchain technology innovation help to improve operational efficiency and lower the level of carbon emission. …”
