摘要
近年来,我国的空气污染问题突出,严重影响着企业的经营决策。空气污染如何影响企业绿色创新?会给企业带来怎样的经济后果?采用2014—2018年中国重污染行业A股上市公司的绿色专利数据,实证检验了空气污染对企业绿色创新的影响及其经济后果。研究发现:第一,空气污染显著提高了重污染行业上市公司的绿色专利申请量,但只是绿色实用新型专利申请量显著增加;第二,空气污染对重污染行业上市公司绿色专利申请量的影响在国有企业、有官员晋升省份的企业中更显著;第三,政府治理空气污染压力是空气污染促进企业绿色创新的影响机制;第四,绿色专利申请量和绿色实用新型专利申请量的增加都显著降低了重污染行业上市公司的排污费;第五,在进行稳健性检验和控制内生性问题后,结论依然成立。研究结论拓展了空气污染对微观企业行为影响的研究领域,丰富了企业绿色创新影响因素的理论文献,也厘清了空气污染影响企业绿色创新的潜在作用机制。
In recent years,air pollution has become increasingly more severe in China,which has seriously affected corporate business decisions.How does air pollution affect the green innovation of enterprises?What economic consequences does it have for enterprises?Using the green patent data of A-share listed companies in heavy polluting industries from 2014 to 2018 in China,this paper analyzes the impact of air pollution on corporate green innovation and the economic consequences of this impact.This study has found that:(1)Air pollution has significantly increased the number of green patent applications from heavy polluting companies,but only in the case of green utility model patent applications.(2)This effect is more significant in state-owned enterprises and enterprises in provinces where officials have been promoted.(3)Government pressure to control air pollution is the main influence mechanism on air pollution promoting corporate green innovation.(4)The increase in the number of green patent applications and green utility model patent applications has reduced corporate fees for pollution discharge significantly.(5)After robustness tests and control for endogenous problems,the conclusions of this study are still valid.This paper expands the research field on the impact of air pollution on micro-enterprises’behavior,supplements academic literature on the influencing factors of corporate green innovation and clarifies the potential influence mechanism of the impact of air pollution on corporate green innovation.
