Eco-investments: Eco-efficiency versus Eco-innovation
Document Type

Presentation Date

Abstract or Description
Presented at the INFORMS Annual Meeting
We examine environmental investment efforts and whether they should be channeled towards cutting production costs through gains in process-oriented resource productivity (eco-efficiency) or product-oriented eco-differentiation that lowers customers' water/energy/fuel use and related costs (eco-innovation), benefits that justify price premiums, and drive increased market share. While eco-efficiency is easy to pursue with little expertise and capital investment, eco-innovation requires the firm to deal with challenges of managing technology and time-to-market uncertainty.
