Policy packaging or policy patching? The development of complex energy efficiency policy mixes (2017, background): “Furthermore, previous studies have often looked at energy efficiency policies' impact on the diffusion of particular technologies or consumer practices (e.g. [5] [49]) or the effects of policies on technological innovation [53].”
Environmental Policy and Innovation: A Decade of Research (2019, background): “Using data on green patents from a set of 1200 multinational corporations (MNCs), Noailly and Ryfisch (2015) consider the globalization of green R&D.”
The impact of environmental policy instruments on innovation: A review of energy and automotive industry studies (2014, background): “In a study of energy efficiency patents, Noailly (2012) confirms these conclusions for a larger sample of European countries: the building-related patents were mainly related to improvements in boilers (incremental innovations) and insulation (incremental or possibly modular innovations) and energy…”
Innovation, growth and the transition to net-zero emissions (2021, background): “…lightbulbs and the emergence of LED provides a case study, and there are a number of causal analyses of the impacts of more stringent standards (see, for example, Noailly (2012), which finds that changes in the stringency of European building codes induced innovations in energy efficiency).”
