基于工业4.0的智能制造在推动企业可持续和盈利实践方面的潜力尚未得到充分挖掘。本研究针对这一差距，采用倾向性得分匹配与差异中的差异方法，研究智能制造政策实施对中国制造业企业绿色创新和财务盈利能力的因果影响。我们的研究结果表明，采用智能制造试点不仅促进了绿色创新，而且提高了中国制造业企业的财务盈利能力。此外，我们还研究了这种因果关系的基本机制和边界条件。通过揭示旨在促进智能转型的政府政策的净效应，我们的研究为基于工业4.0的智能制造的现有文献提供了宝贵的贡献。
The potential of Industry 4.0-based smart manufacturing to drive sustainable and profitable practices in enterprises has yet to be fully explored. This study addresses this gap by utilizing a Propensity Score Matching with Difference-in-Difference methodology to investigate the causal impact of smart manufacturing policy implementation on the green innovation and financial profitability of Chinese manufacturing enterprises. Our results demonstrate that the adoption of smart manufacturing pilots not only promotes green innovation, but also enhances financial profitability of Chinese manufacturing firms. Moreover, we examine the underlying mechanism and boundary conditions of this causal relationship. By shedding light on the net effect of government policies aimed at facilitating smart transformation, our research offers a valuable contribution to the existing literature on Industry 4.0-based smart manufacturing.
