Can the application of robots promote corporate sustainability? This study constructs micro-data based on robot data provided by IFR and annual reports China’s A-share listed companies from 2010 to 2018. By employing a multidimensional fixed effects model for empirical analysis, we arrive at following conclusions. Firstly, implementation robotic technologies substantially improves environmental, social, governance (ESG) performance corporations, which remains robust series robustness tests (including instrumental variables, Heckman two-stage model, placebo tests). Secondly, decomposition effect analysis shows that positively influence E, S, G aspects ESG; in addition, applications primarily ESG promoting green technology innovation, boosting goodwill, enhancing internal control effectiveness. Thirdly, heterogeneity reveals positive are predominantly observed state-owned, large-scale, technology-intensive enterprises. Additionally, is strongest enterprises located central regions, followed eastern while western regions insignificant. Furthermore, results quantile regression reveal robotics exerts greater impact firms with higher initial levels performance. These findings offer researchers framework identify measure sustainability, thus understanding relationship between sustainability.
