Abstract
This research systematically analyzes the influence of digital twin service (DTS) on ESG evaluation and analytically investigates the long-term behavior of sustainability concerned stakeholders in the VLSC. Firstly, an architecture of DTS enabled ESG evaluation for VLSC is proposed to describe the DTS effectiveness. After that, a tripartite evolutionary game model in a two-tiered VLSC including CCLSPs, the public, and government regulators is proposed. And the conditions for the existence of equilibrium stable points are derived to capture the feature of the government incentives and the role of the public in the DTS investment decisions of CCLSPs. The association of the factors is validated by using analytical sensitivity analysis. Lastly, managerial insights are derived which indicate that DTS can offer better solutions to improve ESG evaluation for CCLSPs in VLSC with different strategic stakeholders.
