摘　　要：为探究AQI对地区清洁能源消费的影响及其内在机制,为能源消费清洁化转型提供有益经验,论文基于2006—2021年全国280个地级及以上城市的清洁能源消费数据,根据各城市的AQI公开时间构建准自然实验框架,采用交错双重差分法考察了AQI公开对城市清洁能源消费强度的影响。结果表明,AQI公开提升了城市清洁能源消费强度。机制检验表明,AQI公开通过推动绿色技术进步和限制非清洁能源耗能企业准入影响城市清洁能源消费强度,上述发现证实了AQI公开对企业绿色化转型和地区能源消耗结构优化的正面作用。异质性分析表明,AQI公开后,南方城市相较于北方城市、“两控区”城市相较于非“两控区”城市的清洁能源消费强度提升更低,而沿海城市相较于内陆城市清洁能源消费提升更多。因此,应进一步增强AQI公开的范围,利用环境质量信息改善绩效考核和公众监督的质量,同时配合财税补贴等政策促进城市绿色技术进步和产业转型,促进能源消费清洁化转型。To explore the impact of AQI on regional clean energy consumption and its underlying mechanisms,and provide useful experience for the transformation of clean energy consumption,this paper uses the clean energy consumption data of 280 prefecture-level and above cities across the country from 2006 to 2021,and constructs a quasi-natural experiment framework based on the AQI disclosure time of each city,using the staggered difference-in-differences to examine the impact of AQI disclosure on the intensity of clean energy consumption in cities.The results show that the public disclosure of AQI has increased the intensity of clean energy consumption in cities.The mechanism test shows that the public disclosure of AQI has influenced the intensity of clean energy consumption in cities by promoting the progress of green technologies and restricting the entry of non-clean energy-consuming enterprises,which confirms the positive role of AQI in promoting the green transformation of enterprises and optimizing the energy consumption structure of regions.Heterogeneity analysis shows that after the AQI was made public,the clean energy consumption intensity in southern cities was lower than that in northern cities,and that in“two control area”cities was lower than that in non-“two control area”cities.Meanwhile,the clean energy consumption in coastal cities was higher than that in inland cities.Therefore,the scope of AQI disclosure should be further expanded,and the quality of performance evaluation and public supervision should be improved by using environmental quality information.At the same time,fiscal and tax subsidy policies should be implemented to promote green technology progress and industrial transformation in cities,and promote the clean energy consumption transformation.
