Abstract

Under the guidance of the "dual carbon" goals and sustainable development strategies, environmental protection policies (regulations, standards, economic tools, etc.) have become the core external driving force for promoting the green transformation of enterprises. This study focuses on the influence of environmental policies on enterprise green management, concentrating on the action paths and synergistic relationships of three types of policy tools: command-and-control, market-based incentives and voluntary mechanisms. Based on multiple domestic and international literature sources, this research systematically sorts out and comparatively analyzes the role models, driving mechanisms and comprehensive effects of policy tools in the construction of enterprise green management systems. The results show that command-and-control policies lay the basic threshold for enterprises' green transformation, market-based incentives provide continuous economic incentives, and voluntary mechanisms promote value recognition and collaborative innovation. The three form a complementary and dynamic evolutionary combination, which is conducive to promoting enterprises' transformation from passive compliance to active innovation. This research holds significant reference value for optimizing policy design, guiding enterprises to integrate the concept of green development into their strategies, and promoting the coordinated development of economy and ecology.
