Abstract
Hükümetlerin, işadamlarının, araştırmacıların, politikacıların ilgisini çekmeye başlayan dijital ekonomi yaklaşık 20 yıl önce ortaya atılmıştır. Dijital ekonominin hızla büyümesi beraberinde elektrik talebini arttırmış ve bu önemli bir CO2 emisyonu sorunu yaratmıştır. Bu çalışma, dijital ekonomi ve CO2 emisyonu arasındaki karşılıklı ilişkiyi ortaya koymaya çalışan araştırmaların yanı sıra yayın, ortak yazarlık, anahtar kelimelerin ortak kullanımı ve bu konulardaki atıfları inceleyerek bibliyometrik analiz gerçekleştirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Araştırma için kullanılan 337 belge, Web of Science veri tabanından, SCI Expanded, SSCI ve ESCI koleksiyonlarından elde edilmiş ve toplanan bilgilerin işlenmesi VOSwiever yazılımından faydalanılarak yapılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular, dijital ekonomi ve CO2 emisyonu konuları üzerine araştırma üretimi ve doküman yayınının yıllar itibari ile artış gösterdiği ve literatürdeki yayınlardaki artışın önemli ölçüde 2021'den bu yana gerçekleştiği ve Çin’in konuyla ilgili araştırmalara öncülük ettiği yönündedir. Web of Science veri tabanında dijital ekonomi ve CO2 emisyonu konuları üzerine bibliyometrik bir analiz tespit edilmediğinden, bu makale bu boşluğu doldurmayı amaçlamaktadır.
Anahtar Kelimeler: Dijital Ekonomi, CO2 Emisyonu, Nitel Araştırma, Bibliyometrik Analiz JEL Sınıflandırması: Q43, Q54, P28.

Abstract
The digital economy, which started to attract the attention of governments, businessmen, researchers and politicians, was introduced about 20 years ago. The rapid growth of the digital economy has led to an increase in electricity demand, creating a significant CO2 emission issue. This study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis by examining research on the mutual relationship between the digital economy and CO2 emissions, as well as analyzing publications, co-authorship, shared keywords, and citations on these topics. The 337 documents used for the research were obtained from the Web of Science database, including the SCI Expanded, SSCI, and ESCI collections, and the data processing was done using VOSviewer software. The findings indicate an increase in research production and document publication on the topics of the digital economy and CO2 emissions over the years, with a significant increase in publications since 2021, and China has been leading the way in related research. As a bibliometric analysis on the topics of digital economy and CO2 emissions was not identified in the Web of Science database, this article aims to fill this gap.
Key Words: Digital Economy, CO2 Emission, Qualitative Research, Bibliometric Analysis.
