Abstract
With the accelerating growth of the digital economy, digital technology—as a type of general-purpose technology—creates a more inclusive and open environment for innovation, thereby facilitating the shift toward a low-carbon economy by promoting green innovation. However, we know little about whether there are differences in the roles of various types of green innovation. Therefore, this study evaluates the impact of DE on low-carbon development (LCD) through heterogeneous green innovation. The results show that DE has a significant nonlinear effect on LCD, with an initial suppressing effect t
