| Research Abstract |
Eco-innovation on energy consuming products are analyzed by the interview to corporate researchers and patent analysis between Japanese patents and US patents. This research found that there were 3 processes (through corporate director, environmental regulation and needs for environment). For energy consuming products, needs for environment pushed innovation from technologies for energy efficiency to technologies for reducing energy loss in use, not by environmental regulation directly.
