ABSTRACT
This paper aims to identify the impact of the digital economy, the so-called Information and
Communication Technology (ICT) sectors, on output growth, CO2 emission, and income distribution
in Indonesia. These indicators are so-called green economy indicators. The method of analyzing the
output and value-added multiplier of the ICT sectors and the impact of ICT sectors on CO2 emission and
income distribution is based on input-output analysis. The multiplier, elasticity, and Miyazawa income
distribution analysis will be used. The ICT sectors have high output and value-added multipliers.
This condition suggests that any change in the final demand, such as investment in these sectors, will
highly impact the output and value-added. Regarding CO2 emission, the ICT sectors contributed to less
emission and are mostly regarded as insensitive to CO2 emission, except three of the ICT sectors have
elasticity above the average. The impact of the ICT development sectors can worsen income distribution.
Policy measures should consider the implication of ICT development as the critical sector with the
potential impact of worsening income distribution. Therefore, the government is suggested to encourage
ICT sectors with extra concern for social inclusivity to achieve a green economy.
