Electronics ecodesign research empirically studied

Abstract

An extensive literature analysis has been carried out, encompassing over 850 papers published at ecodesign community conferences. Using a classification framework based on academic and industrial processes of fact-finding, analysis, implementation, and exploitation of ecodesign knowledge and adjacent topics, insight has been generated as to the distribution of research attention across these topics. This information has been used to discuss propositions related to under- and overemphasis of research topics.
