| Abstract |
The growing use of technologies allows enterprises to introduce green processes to reduce the impact of the production on the environment, and to obtain competitive advantage. Green production differs from the conventional production in its emphasis on environmental guidelines, which reduce costs, increase profitability, and make the organizations more competitive. There is very limited normative literature on the relationship between digital transformation and green innovation, therefore this study proposes to answer how digital transformation and environmental innovations are interconnected, and which technologies and green processes are important for achieving a higher level of sustainability. We conducted a systematic review where we combine a bibliometric study to analyze the interconnectedness of environmental innovations and digital transformation and a content analysis with focus on the technologies and processes that promote higher levels of sustainability. We expect that our findings support scholars and practitioners to explore empirical evidence of this relationship. |
