The environment protection and technology innovation is an important strategy to promote economy high-quality development, and their relationship is the focus of academic attention. This paper estimates the performance of industry green innovation in 279 prefecture-level cities in China from 2009 to 2020, and uses the SYS-GMM method to investigate the impact of command-based environment regulation and public participation environment regulation on local industrial green innovation. It is found that the synergy between command-based environment regulation and public-participatory environment regulation has a long-term mechanism to promote the local industry green innovation and development, which not only enhances the effect of command-based environment regulation, but also significantly improves the impact of public-participatory environment regulation. This paper examines the important impact of different environment regulatory tools synergy on local industry green innovation, and provides a useful reference for coordinating and optimizing various environment regulatory tools, especially improving public participation, and jointly exerting the combined incentive effect of different types of regulatory tools on green innovation.
