Fichter, K. & Clausen, J. (2021). Diffusion of environmental innovations: Sector differences and explanation range of factors. Environmental Innovation and Societal Transitions, 38, 34–51.

Empirical research on the diffusion of environmental product and service innovations has significant limits: almost all investigations focus on just a single sector or technology. Therefore, it is hardly possible to generalize across sectors and to identify potential differences between sectors. We address this research gap with an investigation of a large sample of 130 diffusion cases from 11 different sectors.
