Green economic development was put forward in 2015, and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development was agreed by the United Nations. For today's world economic and social transformation, two major trends include digital economy and green economy. A quasi-natural experiment was used in this study, and panel data from 30 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities from 2011 to 2022 was the basis of the study. The DID model can be constructed, and the development of green economy can be studied under the influence of data. In order to promote the development of green economy, three approaches can be used by data element aggregation: optimizing the ecological environment, enhancing technological levels, and facilitating enterprise digital transformation. Heterogeneity analysis reveals that in provinces with lower levels of green finance development, the influence of data element aggregation on green economy development is significantly enhanced. Therefore, it is crucial to focus on data element aggregation to promote green economic development.
