The digital economy has injected continuous momentum into the development of urban economy and plays a positive and important role in the transformation and upgrading of urban energy consumption. Specifically, the digital economy can significantly improve the efficiency of urban energy consumption by virtue of its distinctive characteristics of low pollution and high efficiency. Moreover, empowered by the digital economy, the pace of transformation and upgrading of high-pollution traditional industries has been accelerated. Particularly importantly, the urban energy consumption structure has been optimized and adjusted through the indirect role of intermediate factors. From this perspective, studying the current situation and countermeasures of urban energy consumption under the digital economy holds important practical significance both in theory and practice. This paper first briefly summarizes the relevant literature on the impact of the digital economy on the energy consumption structure; then, it focuses on detailed data to explore the current situation of urban energy consumption under the digital economy model; finally, based on the summary of the current situation, it puts forward practical and feasible suggestions, hoping to provide a decision-making basis for the implementation of policies in different types of cities and offer innovative ideas for promoting the high-quality development of urban energy systems.
