Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Activities related to environmental, social, and economic friendliness help to achieve sustainability. However, these actions also increase the costs of private and public companies. A smart institution/corporate strategy is to implement a strategy to achieve environmental, social, and economic sustainability while simultaneously allowing the institution/companies to be beneficiaries of environmentally, socially, and economically friendly activities. Leaders in both public and private institutions/companies are facing the challenge of achieving environmental, social, and economic friendliness with stakeholder supremacy.
The issue of how to create a smart institution/corporate strategy is challenging. Researchers in the areas of renewable energy policies and ecological economics are encouraged to address and debate the challenges and provide new findings, suggestions, and solutions for environmental, social, and economic sustainability.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Renewable energy policy;
- Renewable energy;
- Green technology;
- Green innovation;
- Technology innovation;
- Eco-innovation;
- Ecological economics;
- Environmental sustainability;
- Social sustainability;
- Economic sustainability;
- Strategic management;
- Business model;
- Environmental governance systems (EGSs);
- Green finance;
- International trade;
- Foreign direct investment;
- Institutions.
I look forward to receiving your contributions.
Prof. Dr. Chia-Hsing Huang
