Abstract Promoting urban green development and accelerating the green transformation of development mode are the due meaning of achieving high-quality urban development. The in-depth promotion of digital economy can provide important impetus for urban green development and provide new opportunities to realize green and coordinated development between cities. This paper takes digital economy as a key factor to be included in the spatial convergence model of urban green development, and empirically tests the effect and mechanism of digital economy on the green development gap between cities based on the data of 277 prefecture-level cities in China from 2012 to 2020. The results show that, after considering the spatial effect and urban heterogeneity, there is a conditional β convergence characteristic in China’s urban green development. In other words, the green development gap between cities gradually narrows and converges to the same steady equilibrium level. Digital economy helps to promote the spatial convergence of urban green development, which not only plays a positive function of narrowing the green development gap between cities, but also has a spatial spillover effect, which helps to narrow the green development gap of geographically adjacent cities. Digital economy improves the speed of urban green development through green technology progress, so as to narrow the green development gap among cities. However, the efficiency of green technology is not an important mechanism for digital economy to narrow the green development gap between cities. The spatial convergence rate of urban green development in central and western China is faster than that in eastern China, and the spatial convergence effect of digital economy on urban green development are more significant in central and western China.
