Environmental regulation as a stimulus for eco-innovation

Valeria Costantini

Chapter 16 in Elgar Encyclopedia on the Economics of Knowledge and Innovation, 2022, pp 137-145 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Environmental regulation is widely recognized as a strong stimulus for the development and deployment of new technologies designed for reducing the pressure on ecosystems by anthropic activities. This Chapter surveys the instruments that form the environmental policy mix and describes the multiple impacts on eco-innovation patterns. Alternative instruments and the different design of the policy mix strategy are related to the development trajectory of green technologies. Implications for improving the efficiency of the regulatory framework to foster eco-innovation dynamics are presented in light of the future challenge of a global ecological transition.
