报告Green Finance, Economic- and Environmental-performance Pressures, and Green-washing in the Chinese High-Carbon Industry

主讲人: Najaf Iqbal

 

内容简介

As technological progress aimed at realizing resource conservation and environmental protection, green technology innovation is an important driving force for green and high-quality development. How to measure green technology innovation? Is the Porter Hypothesis valid in China's environmental regulation? The research perspective of this paper focuses on the Clean Air Action Plan, the paradigmatic environmental regulation in China. Based on the patent data and classification, China's green innovation activities are measured from the two dimensions of quantity and quality. Using the program evaluation method suggested by Hsiao et al. (2012), this paper assessed the impact of the Clean Air Action Plan on green technology innovation by constructing a counterfactual framework. The estimation results show that environmental regulation has boosted the incentive of green technology innovation activities. But in both statistics and economic magnitude, the promotion effect on patent quality is significantly smaller than that on patent quantity. Further analysis shows that policy effect is heterogenous in different scopes, and the quantitative and qualitative improvement is only embodied in green patents of waste management. The findings of this paper will provide a sustainable development path for countries in similar situations.
