The Ecological Modernization of the Chemical Industry: Predictors for Adoption of Innovations to Reach Carbon Neutrality in the Chemical Industry

Ahrens, Hendrik Hermann Eckart

In this book key predictors of renewable feedstock adoption to achieve carbon neutrality in the European chemical industry are explored. Systematic data collection for the analysis was conducted through semi-structured expert interviews and document analysis, validating existing theories, including agent-based models of innovation diffusion, the multi-level perspective of socio-technical transition and technological innovation systems. The research findings led to insights on the key predictors of renewable resource adoption and support practitioners to manage the transition to carbon neutrality.
