Abstract

Application of Information Technology such as big data, Internet, blockchain and cloud computing provides more possibilities for the low carbon economy. This paper scientifically estimates the carbon emission of 275 cities from 2011 to 2018 in China, builds a city panal model and studies the impact of Information Technology on carbon emissions with Stata software analysis, which verifies the emission reduction effect of Information Technology. Mechanism analysis shows that Information Technology curb the intensity of carbon emission by alleviating credit constraints and reducing the energy consumption intensity.
