Abstract: How to promote the change of development mode through enterprise green transformation, to realize the balance between economic and social development and environmental quality is an urgent and important research topic. In this sense, the empirical test of the enterprise green transformation is not only among the key interests of academics, but also has strong policy implications. Different from the previous research on it, this paper attempts to start from the new research perspective of complex social network, uses the research history of enterprise green transformation as an entry point, systematically sorts out and analyzes the influencing factors, the mechanism and peer evolution that affect the enterprise green transformation. On the basis of this,  an integrated theoretical framework is put forward, and  some  reference is provided for the development of relevant research on enterprise green transformation. This paper aims to broaden the research perspective of enterprise green transformation, enrich and improve enterprise green transformation theories and methods. The research results will help reveal the “black box” of green transformation, and provide government guidance for the diffusion of green transformation.
