How environmental regulations are used to improve manufacturing capacity is crucial to the future development of China's manufacturing industry from a quality point of view. This paper adopts a dynamic spatial panel model to empirically analyze both the effects of different types of environmental regulation policies on capacity utilization in China's manufacturing industry and their mechanisms. The results show that China's manufacturing capacity utilization varies a great deal, with improvements in technical efficiency playing the main role, although with significant regional differences. Both command-and-control and market-incentive environmental regulation are conducive to improvements in manufacturing capacity utilization; market-incentive environmental regulation, however, plays the stronger role. The above mechanisms have certain differences though. Both types of environmental regulations are able to improve manufacturing capacity utilization by improving technical efficiency and equipment utilization but the command-and-control policy tool exerts a greater effect in improving technical efficiency while the market-incentive mechanism has a greater effect in improving equipment utilization.
从质量角度看，如何利用环境法规来提高制造业产能对中国制造业的未来发展至关重要。本文采用动态空间面板模型，从实证角度分析了不同类型的环境规制政策对中国制造业产能利用率的影响及其作用机制。结果表明，中国制造业产能利用率差异较大，技术效率的提高起到了主要作用，尽管存在显著的区域差异。命令-控制型和市场激励型环境规制都有利于提高制造业产能利用率；然而，市场激励型环境规制发挥了更强的作用。不过，上述机制存在一定差异。这两种类型的环境法规都能够通过提高技术效率和设备利用率来提高制造业产能利用率，但命令-控制型政策工具在提高技术效率方面的效果更大，而市场激励机制在提高设备利用率方面的效果更大。
