Abstract |
Big data technology may improve the quality of environmental information disclosure and address the challenge of information asymmetry. This study adopts a difference -in -differences strategy to investigate the effectiveness of the big data -based environmental information disclosure system launched by the Chinese Ministry of Environmental Protection in 2013. The results reveal that, the system signi ficantly stimulates green innovation in hard -to -abate enterprises with an entrepreneurial orientation. A mechanism exploration suggests that environmental big data information disclosure drives of ficials to implement environmental policies aimed at hard -to -abate enterprises and raises public concern regarding environmental quality; however, the mechanism of public attention is found to be ineffective in stimulating corporate green innovation in the sample period. This study identi fies a useful channel for policymakers to develop green innovation by enhancing the current system of environmental big data information disclosure. (c) 2024 The Authors.
