Abstract Using the provincial panel data of Chinese industrial enterprises from 2007 to 2016 to establish a threshold regression model, Based on the enterprise scale and environmental regulation intensity as the threshold, the impact of the environmental regulation intensity and the interaction between the enterprise scale and the environmental regulation intensity on the quality of technological innovation is studied. The empirical results show that when the enterprise scale is the threshold, there is a single threshold effect between the intensity of environmental regulation in the eastern, central and western regions on the quality of technological innovation. When the scale of the enterprise is lower than the threshold, the intensity of environmental regulation in the eastern region can effectively promote the development of technological innovation quality, and the promotion effect in the central and western regions is not significant. When the threshold value is crossed, the development of the quality of technological innovation can be effectively promoted, and the promotion effect in the eastern region is enhanced; When the intensity of environmental regulation is the threshold, there is a single threshold effect between the intensity of environmental regulation in the eastern, central and western regions on the quality of technological innovation. When the environmental regulation intensity is lower than the corresponding threshold, the promotion effect in the eastern region is significant, while the effect in the central and western regions is not significant. After reaching the threshold, the promotion effect is significant, but the degree of promotion in the eastern region is slightly weakened; The scale of the enterprise will indirectly affect the promotion of the intensity of environmental regulation to the quality of technological innovation.
