Abstract

Der Artikel geht auf die Beziehung zwischen digitaler Transformation im Unternehmen und grüner Innovation ein und beleuchtet die unterschiedlichen Effekte, die auf den Motivationen hinter diesen Innovationen beruhen. Sie kategorisiert grüne Innovationen in substanzielle und strategische Typen, wobei substanzielle Innovationen auf technologischen Fortschritt und Wettbewerbsvorteile abzielen, während strategische Innovationen sich auf die Einhaltung von Vorschriften konzentrieren. Die Studie kommt zu dem Schluss, dass die digitale Transformation substanzielle grüne Innovationen erheblich fördert, aber nur begrenzte Auswirkungen auf strategische grüne Innovationen hat. Darüber hinaus untersucht der Artikel, wie Umweltorientierung, sowohl verpflichtend als auch freiwillig, die Beziehung zwischen digitaler Transformation und grüner Innovation mäßigt. Die empirischen Ergebnisse tragen zum Verständnis bei, wie Unternehmen digitale Technologien nutzen können, um nachhaltige Vorgehensweisen zu fördern und Umweltziele zu erreichen.
