The impact of environmental protection tax law on corporate innovation
This paper examines the intrinsic relationship between environmental protection tax and corporate innovation. Employing a difference-in-differences approach complemented by case study analysis, we systematically investigate how environmental tax policies affect innovation behaviors across different firm types. The results demonstrate that environmental protection tax significantly promotes corporate innovation. The tax reform stimulates innovation output by enhancing firms' ESG performance, with state-owned enterprises and large firms exhibiting more pronounced innovation responses. These findings provide empirical evidence for policymakers to refine environmental taxation systems.
