Abstract

The central environmental protection inspector is a major institutional innovation in the construction of ecological civilization in China, and it is also the strictest environmental protection system to promote the development of green innovation in enterprises. Based on CRNDS 2010–2020 data, taking the central environmental protection inspector as a quasi natural experiment, this paper uses the multi-stage double difference method to investigate the impact of the central environmental protection inspector on the green patents of heavily polluting enterprises. The empirical results show that the central environmental protection inspector has a significant negative impact on the green patents of heavily polluting enterprises; Further heterogeneity test found that the impact on green invention patents of heavily polluting enterprises was negative, but not significant; The impact on green patents of heavy polluting enterprises with different ownership is significantly negative. In view of this, this paper puts forward some suggestions, such as continuously strengthening the central environmental protection supervision system, optimizing and improving the environmental protection governance evaluation system, and implementing differentiated policies and measures for innovation and enterprise heterogeneity.
