Chapter 1. Introduction
Abstract
Climate change and other crisis are more and more dominating today’s life. As a consequence, the CO2 concentration in the atmosphere is rising along with extreme weather. The current refugee phaenomenon is mainly caused by war and terror, however with increasing water shortages and draughts, many more people will prospectively be on the run for a place to survive and further increase the current scenarios.

Chapter 2. Current tendencies regarding sustainable energy strategies and knowledge intensive business services
Abstract
Innovative business practices are defined more and more by Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), efficiency and innovations. If in addition they need to be sustainable also, they take many stakeholder interests in account too. Those include economical, but also ecologic and social interest.
Gregor Weber
Chapter 3. Present approaches and tendencies in sustainable energy strategies in relation to CSR
Abstract
In the context of climate change and increasing globalization, the current business environment has led to more and more norm and society focused business practices specifically pushed by the most recent development in energy economics described earlier. Business networks, business ethics, sustainability, social entrepreneurship and especially social corporate responsibility experience an increasing focus (Olaru et al., 2011b; Loew et al., 2011; Altenburger, 2015). Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) occasionally also titled as Corporate Responsibility (CR) hereby is the responsibility enterprises voluntarily take on for people as well the environment and the society above existing legal obligations (Suchanek, 2015).

Chapter 4. Today’s approaches of innovation in the context of sustainable energy strategies
Abstract
The conflicts coming along with social and ecological challenges such as climate change, resource availability, urbanization, lack in confidence in organizations etc. are often perceived as threats by enterprises. Recently however, more and more organizations understand these as chances for innovation, especially as customers and enterprises increasingly base their purchase and investment decisions on sustainability and social responsibility factors. As described earlier, CSR is developing to becoming a trend in the society.

Chapter 5. Actual evolution of the energy economics in Germany
Abstract
Following the Lisbon strategy, the Council of the European Union approved the Europa 2020 strategy back in June 2010. Aiming at increased growth and employment in Europe, innovation, research and development are important elements. Based on the three priorities of smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, several targets and lead initiatives are designed to support its successful implementation (Figure 93).

Chapter 6. Study on the opinions of enterprises regarding the evolution of the energy sector
Abstract
Reading through and analysing all the studies and researches performed so far, there was no investigation regarding the correlation between changes in the energy system and its impact on the industry that could be identified. Filling this gap, starting 2013 through 2015 annual field surveys were conducted with the support of the Association of the German Chambers of Commerce and Industry – DIHK8. The field surveys were executed using questionnaires with specific questions related to the ongoing changes in the energy economics and the resulting effects to the enterprises.

Chapter 7. Studies regarding innovative and responsible business practices for sustainable energy strategies in Germany
Abstract
Global warming cannot be rationalized away any longer; changes in the energy economics are common practice. Climate change is reality, some may ignore it, but the facts are every day more visible – unfortunately. Hurricanes, floods, droughts, and many more become more frequent and much stronger – unfortunately more “sustainable” (in a negative sense) – climate zones a changing - temperature on earth is rising - the glaciers are melding - with all its implications.
Gregor Weber
Chapter 8. Proposals for innovative and responsible business practices for sustainable energy and social responsibility
Abstract
As laid out earlier, the European action plans for energy efficiency are important for the environment but also for the national economies (Figure 163).
