Abstract

This study aims to explore how digital transformation can promote sustainable development. Specifically, this paper makes an in-depth analysis from the perspective of theory and practice, in order to provide a solid theoretical basis and effective practical guidance for sustainable development, and help the coordinated progress of economy, society and environment. The primary characteristics of digital transformation include being data-driven, real-time interconnected, automated and intelligent, and customer-oriented. Digital transformation can contribute to sustainable development across various industries, ranging from industrial manufacturing to agriculture, energy, and urban development, all of which have seen practical outcomes. In the industrial manufacturing sector, digital transformation can enhance production efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and minimize waste emissions. In agriculture, it can enable precision farming and smart agriculture, thereby improving agricultural productivity and sustainability. In the energy sector, digital transformation can achieve clean, efficient, and renewable energy production. In urban development, it can facilitate the construction of smart and sustainable cities, improving urban environmental quality and residents’ quality of life. Government, businesses, and society all play crucial roles in driving digital transformation forward.
