Abstract

This paper studies the empowerment mechanisms, innovative pathways, and countermeasures of digital economy in driving the green upgrading of the energy industry in Liaoning Province. First, the paper analyzes the innovative mechanisms, talent mechanisms, and structural mechanisms of digital economy in driving the green upgrading of the energy industry in Liaoning Province. Then, based on the theory of digital empowerment, the paper explores the development model of energy industry intelligent green upgrading in Dalian, and takes IBM's digital transformation as an example to provide insights into how digital economy drives industrial transformation and upgrading. The paper also constructs a measurement model to empirically verify the impact and pathways of digital economy on the green upgrading of the energy industry. Finally, it proposes countermeasures such as relying on digital economy to drive the intelligent upgrading of industries, promoting the construction of intelligent industrial management systems, and building a complete digital empowerment capital support system to promote the digitalization, intelligentization, and high-end development of the energy industry in Liaoning Province.
