    Natural resources and technology - on the mitigating effect of green tech
    This paper deals with the question as to whether technology can lessen the problem of scarce resources. Focusing on fossil and biomass materials as important resources for production and consumption, the paper empirically investigates whether environmental innovations reduce the material usage in European economies. A dynamic panel model is employed to estimate the effect of environmental innovations on the use of fossil and biomass materials. It shows that there is no continuously mitigating effect of green technology. For biomass, no significant technology effects are found. Fossil materials are saved by innovations in recycling as well as by new production and processing technologies, but not by all categories of relevant green technology.

    Experience report - Developing an evaluation scheme for the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine based on experiences of the Leibniz Association
    This report summarizes insights gained during the project "Eval-Science" that has been financed by the Federal Ministry of Research and Education (BMBF) and the Ukrainian Ministry of Research and Education. In this report, we discuss the new evaluation procedure that the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (NASU) has adopted to evaluate its research institutes. Due to similarities we propose how procedures of the Leibniz Association can provide a useful reference point to further improve the evaluations of the NASU.

    Green Technologies and Their Role for Sustainability - Essays on Environmental Innovation
    The present thesis consists of four empirical papers relating to the concept of environmental innovation. The papers analyze the role of institutions for the introduction of environmental innovation, and the effects of green technologies on carbon dioxide emissions, resource use, and distinctly the use of biomass and fossil resources. These empirical papers are embedded by an introduction that draws on insights from the natural sciences, innovation theory, as well as economic history and anthropology in order to provide a holistic perspective on the role of technology in the pursuit of sustainable development.

    Green Technologies, Environmental Policy and Regional Growth
    Green technologies are at the very core of endeavors to combine economic and environmental targets to achieve sustainable growth. In this article, we aim to determine the impact of green technology development on total factor productivity of European regions. Our paper contributes to the literature on technological change and regional growth in various ways. i) Our paper is, to the best of our knowledge, the first to assess the specific role of green technologies for regional growth on a broad empirical base. ii) We advance methodologically on the pertinent literature by explicitly accounting for cross-sectional dependence in our empirical approach. iii) By providing a simple theoretical framework, we directly link our results to implications of environmental policies for capital accumulation and composition dynamics, contributing to the ongoing debate revolving around the strong version of the Porter hypothesis. Our results, based on a sample of 270 European NUTS-2 regions over 25 years, imply that general technology development is mostly associated with positive economic returns, but our data is not supportive of positive economic returns to green technologies.
