This study explores the influence of accountability system on corporate green innovation. Using data Chinese A-share-listed companies from 2013 to 2022, we found that significantly promotes innovations in state-owned enterprises (SOEs). Furthermore, promoting effect is stronger central SOEs as opposed local SOEs. A mechanism analysis suggested its positive may stem improving internal controls, curbing managerial myopia, and providing sufficient resources. In addition, heterogeneity tests innovation more pronounced when CEO close retirement or subject high pressure, heavily polluting firms, regions with intense environmental regulations. Further analyses also improves quality, persistence, performance. Our findings indicate has unexpected real effects sustainable development.

Government support for achieving corporate carbon emission reduction is crucial not only sustainable business development, but it also holds strategic importance China to achieve its “dual-carbon” goals. This article empirically explores the impact and underlying mechanisms of government environmental attention (GEA) on performance (CEP), using a sample A-share listed companies with high energy consumption from 2009 2020. The results show that GEA can improve CEP. A heterogeneity analysis found this effect more pronounced in heavily polluting industries, small medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), located eastern regions country. mechanism suggested CEP by strengthening internal green technological innovation capabilities attracting external analysts media. These research conclusions guide practices offer empirical evidence formulating regulatory policies reduction.
