摘要

构建绿色制造体系是实现“双碳”目标、推动经济高质量发展的关键途径。绿色工厂项目作为一种典型的政府绿色认证制度与绿色制造体系的核心支撑单元,对其开展研究可为有效激励企业深化绿色治理、破解当前资源约束趋紧与环境压力增大等现实问题,提供兼具现实意义和学术价值的理论依据及实践支撑。具体而言,该研究以绿色工厂认证作为准自然实验,结合2009—2023年A股上市公司环境与财务数据,深入探究政府绿色认证制度对企业绿色治理绩效的影响效应与内在机制,并详细回答关于绿色工厂认证项目的争议性问题。研究结果表明:①绿色工厂认证对企业绿色治理绩效有着显著的正向促进作用,这一结论在经过平行趋势检验、安慰剂检验、倾向得分匹配法等一系列内生性处理与稳健性检验后依然成立。②机制分析揭示,技术优化、效率改善和信息披露效应,是绿色工厂认证提升企业绿色治理绩效的核心传导路径。③扩展性分析发现,随着获评次数增加,绿色工厂认证对企业绿色治理绩效的边际提升作用递减;获评后发生环境违规的企业降低了绿色治理绩效;而存在“信用修复”问题的企业,则表现出更高的绿色治理绩效。④异质性分析表明,属于重污染行业、位于东部及环境规制较严格地区的企业中,绿色工厂认证对其绿色治理绩效的促进作用更为明显。基于上述内容该研究提出如下建议:发挥绿色工厂企业的示范引领作用,鼓励更多企业积极申报绿色工厂;加强动态监管,确保企业长期遵守评价标准,持续推动绿色治理;加强绿色技术的创新与产业化应用,以提升企业的绿色治理能力。

Abstract

Building a green manufacturing system is a key approach to achieving the“dual carbon”goals and promoting high-quality economic development in China. As the green factory project serves as a typical government green certification system and a core sup-porting unit of the green manufacturing system, studying the project can provide a theoretical basis and practical support with both prac-tical significance and academic value. This is essential for effectively motivating enterprises to deepen green governance and solve cur-rent problems such as tightening resource constraints and increasing environmental pressure. Specifically, using green factory certifica-tion as a quasi-natural experiment and combining the environmental and financial data of A-share listed enterprises from 2009 to 2023, this study explored the impact of the government green certification system on corporate green governance and its underlying mecha-nisms, and further addressed controversial issues regarding green factory projects. The results showed that: ① Green factory certifica-tion had a significant positive promoting effect on corporate green governance performance, and this conclusion remained robust after a series of tests such as the parallel trends test, the placebo test, and the propensity score matching method. ② Mechanism analysis re-vealed that technological optimization, efficiency improvement, and information disclosure effects were the core transmission paths through which green factory certification enhanced corporate green governance performance. ③ Extended analysis found that as the number of certifications increased, the marginal improvement effect of green factory certification on corporate green governance perfor-mance decreased; enterprises that committed environmental violations after being certified exhibited lower green governance perfor-mance, whereas enterprises with“credit repair”issues showed higher green governance performance. ④ Heterogeneity analysis indicat-ed that the promoting effect of green factory certification on corporate green governance performance was more pronounced in enterpris-es within heavy pollution industries, in the eastern region, and in areas with stricter environmental regulations. Based on these findings, this study proposes the following suggestions: leverage the exemplary role of green factory enterprises to encourage more enterprises to actively apply for green factory certification; strengthen dynamic supervision to ensure that enterprises continuously abide by evaluation standards and promote green governance; and enhance the innovation and industrial application of green technologies to improve enter-prises' green governance capabilities.
