摘要

生态创新（EI）是一种有益于环境的典型创新。它被视为一个必要的步骤，对全球范围内的碳减排斗争做出了积极贡献。它是实现可持续发展、提高环境和经济绩效的重要组成部分。本研究调查了促使南非约翰内斯堡的微型和小型企业（MSE）采用环境创新技术的因素。研究采用计量经济学模型对 1,021 家微型和小型企业进行了调查。probit 结果显示，环境税、政府补贴和研发活动对采用环境创新技术有积极影响。此外，采用环境创新还取决于企业对非环境创新（如新产品创新、改进产品创新和改进服务创新）的成功应用。文章最后提出了政策启示。

Determining Factors of Eco-innovation Adoption: An Empirical Study of Micro- and Small Enterprises in Johannesburg, South Africa

Eco-innovation (EI) is a typical innovation that is beneficial to the environment. It is seen as a necessary step that positively contributes to the worldwide fight against carbon emissions. It is a crucial component for achieving sustainable development, and improving environmental and economic performance. This study investigates what drives micro- and small enterprises (MSEs) to adopt environmental innovation technologies in Johannesburg, South Africa. An econometric model is used in the study to examine a total of 1,021 MSEs. The probit findings show that environmental tax, government subsidies, and research and development activities have a positive influence on EI adoption. Also, adoption of EI is dependent on the successful application of non-EIs (e.g., innovation on new products, innovation on improved products and innovation on improved services) by enterprises. The article concludes with policy implications.
