Digital trade, as one of the vanguards of the global technological revolution and industrial transformation, empowers low-carbon economic cooperation on a global scale. This study based on panel data from 2007 to 2021 of 46 countries with varied development levels, constructed a multi-dimensional indicator system from six aspects: trade potential, digital infrastructure, digital innovation, digital skills and security, scale of digital trade, and digital trade environment, aim to measure the development level of digital trade and explore its impact on carbon emissions, followed by a heterogeneity analysis. The research results indicate that there are significant differences in the development levels of digital trade among countries with different economic strengths. Countries with stronger economic power and larger trade scales have a higher level of digital trade development, while less developed regions lag in digital trade. As the level of digital trade development increases, the impact of digital trade on carbon emissions will also change. Overall, digital trade exhibits a pronounced low-carbon effect, while its impact varies among countries with different development levels.

Using the digital service trade data of RCEP member countries from 2006 to 2021, this study analyzes the structural characteristics and network centrality of the overall and segmented industry trade networks, applying social network analysis based on social network theory. The results show that the overall and segmented industry trade networks of RCEP member countries have exhibited a gradual increase in network structure stability, accompanied by the emergence of pronounced ‘small-world’ characteristics; Singapore and Japan are at the center of the network. Moreover, the quadratic assignment procedure (QAP) model is applied to explore the factors affecting networks based on digital service trade data in 2006 and 2021. We established that institutional distance and geographic distance act as impediments to the development of trade in digital services in RCEP member countries; conversely, common language facilitates its development. For two countries with more similar levels of economic development, it is easier to establish trade links and increase trade value in sectors such as insurance and pension services, and it is also easier to establish trade links in industries such as communication, computer, and information (ICT) services, but the effect on trade value is not significant. For two countries with more similar levels of digital infrastructure, it is easier to establish trade links and increase trade value in industries such as financial service, and it is also easier to establish trade links in industries such as insurance and pension services, but the effect on trade value is not significant. In response to this study’s results, we propose five recommendations to enhance the development of China’s digital service trade.
