摘要

欧盟正在积极推进其工业的绿色和数字化转型，寻求整合颠覆性的新技术，以提高现有生产线的效率。然而，在当前的监管框架下，这些对转型至关重要的技术的引进遇到了挑战。本文对法律框架进行了系统研究，以了解受环境立法和预防原则影响的授权程序可能会如何阻碍颠覆性新技术的采用。此外，文章还评估了实验规则（如法律沙盒）在解决与这些技术相关的科学不确定性方面的有效性。尽管创新政策与环境法规之间存在紧张关系，但在决策程序中采用预防原则可以促进采用可持续创新，同时优先考虑长期环境和社会福祉。

The awkward relations between EU innovation policies and environmental law

The European Union is actively advancing the green and digital transformation of its industries by seeking to integrate disruptive and novel technologies to enhance efficiency in existing production lines. However, the introduction of these technologies, pivotal for this transformation, has encountered challenges within the current regulatory framework. This article systematically examines the legal framework to understand how authorisation procedures, influenced by environmental legislation interpreted in conjunction with the precautionary principle, might hinder the adoption of disruptive and novel technologies. Additionally, the article evaluates the effectiveness of experimentation rules, such as legal sandboxes, in addressing scientific uncertainties linked to these technologies. Despite tensions between innovation policies and environmental regulations, embracing the precautionary principle in decision‐making procedures could facilitate the adoption of sustainable innovations while prioritising long‐term environmental and societal well‐being.
