Observational study reveals extreme heat shocks promote green innovation in manufacturing firms, highlighting climate risk as a driver of environmental technological adaptation.

Key Points

To investigate how climate risk, measured through extreme high-temperature exposure, influences manufacturing firms' green innovation and organizational adaptation mechanisms.
Analyzed panel data from Chinese A-share listed manufacturing firms spanning 2010 to 2022.
Evaluated the impact of extreme heat exposure on corporate green innovation while assessing mediating mechanisms (R&D investment and adaptive capacity) and moderating conditions (regional green finance, financial slack, firm ownership, and pollution intensity).
Extreme heat shocks significantly increase green innovation among manufacturing firms by driving higher R&D investments and strengthening organizational adaptive capacity.
The positive relationship between climate stress and green innovation is amplified by regional green finance development, dampened by internal financial slack, and concentrated in non-state-owned and non-heavily polluting enterprises.
