Exploring Key Digital Transformation Technologies for Net Zero Strategies: A Case Study of the Green Energy Industry in Taiwan

This study aims to explore how digital transformation (DT) accelerates the achievement of net zero (NZ) goals within Taiwan’s green energy industry. By employing quality function deployment as the analytical framework and multiple-attribute decision making for systematic evaluation, a practical and integrative model is developed to identify key DT technologies. The results reveal that establishing a comprehensive carbon footprint management system is the most essential NZ strategy, while Radio-Frequency Identification emerges as the most influential DT enabler supporting sustainability, emission reduction, and industrial transformation toward a smart and low-carbon economy.
