Abstract

This study examines the impact of administrative incentive policies on green innovation of Chinese enterprises from 2015 to 2022. The results show that administrative incentive policies can increase the number of green patent applications and the number of green patent citations, thus improving the level of enterprise green innovation. However, differences in policy types lead to differences in the degree of impact, with command and control incentive policies having a stronger facilitating effect than economic incentive policies.
