Abstract

Under the background of the global dual carbon (carbon peak and carbon neutrality) goals , the development of new energy enterprises is closely related to ESG (environment, society and governance) investment. As the core force for achieving low-carbon transformation, the valuation system of new energy enterprises is undergoing a profound transformation from the traditional ESG comprehensive value of the index. At the same time, blockchain technology, with its decentralization and data immutability, provides innovative solutions for information disclosure and data management in ESG investment. However, existing research has not explored the mechanism by which blockchain technology empowers ESG investment to affect the valuation of new energy enterprises. This study aims to systematically sort out the impact mechanism and, through a comprehensive analysis of relevant literature, reveal the application value of blockchain technology in ESG investment and its role in improving the valuation of new energy enterprises, in order to fill the research gap. The study found that blockchain technology has shown significant advantages in improving the transparency of ESG data, reducing management costs and optimizing the decision-making process, providing technical support for ESG investment in new energy companies. ESG investment has a positive impact on the valuation of new energy companies through risk mitigation, brand premium and policy dividends, and forms a synergistic effect through multi-dimensional paths.
