摘要

本研究考察了影响巴西糖能源行业采用环境战略的驱动因素，重点研究了12家大中型糖厂。它探讨了外部/内部压力、运营绩效和竞争力之间的关系。研究证实，环境立法和商品交易等外部压力，以及工作场所安全等内部压力，在很大程度上推动了环境战略的实施。采用环保措施对运营绩效产生积极影响，特别是通过组织结构、水/废物处理和副产品再利用。此外，环境战略提高竞争力，外部项目和卓越运营发挥着至关重要的作用。实施这些策略的工厂获得优势，包括改善市场准入，减少处罚，有效利用副产品，提高利益相关者满意度。虽然调查结果仅针对被调查的工厂，但它们强调了社会和政府压力在促进整个行业的环境实践方面的重要性，并为寻求通过环境战略提高运营卓越性和竞争力的其他公司提供了有价值的见解。

Environmental Strategies in the Brazilian Sugar‐Energy Sector: Drivers, Performance, and Competitiveness

This study examines the drivers influencing environmental strategy adoption within the Brazilian sugar‐energy sector, focusing on 12 medium to large‐sized mills. It explores the relationship between external/internal pressures, operational performance, and competitiveness. The research confirms that external pressures like environmental legislation and commodity trading, alongside internal pressures such as workplace safety, significantly drive the implementation of environmental strategies. Adopting environmental practices positively impacts operational performance, notably through organizational structures, water/waste treatment, and by‐product reuse. Furthermore, environmental strategies enhance competitiveness, with external projects and operational excellence playing crucial roles. Mills implementing these strategies gain advantages, including improved market access, reduced penalties, efficient by‐product utilization, and enhanced stakeholder satisfaction. While the findings are specific to the surveyed mills, they highlight the importance of social and governmental pressures in promoting environmental practices across the industry and offer valuable insights for other companies seeking to improve operational excellence and competitiveness through environmental strategies.

期刊介绍： Business Strategy and the Environment (BSE) is a leading academic journal focused on business strategies for improving the natural environment. It publishes peer-reviewed research on various topics such as systems and standards, environmental performance, disclosure, eco-innovation, corporate environmental management tools, organizations and management, supply chains, circular economy, governance, green finance, industry sectors, and responses to climate change and other contemporary environmental issues. The journal aims to provide original contributions that enhance the understanding of sustainability in business. Its target audience includes academics, practitioners, business managers, and consultants. However, BSE does not accept papers on corporate social responsibility (CSR), as this topic is covered by its sibling journal Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management. The journal is indexed in several databases and collections such as ABI/INFORM Collection, Agricultural & Environmental Science Database, BIOBASE, Emerald Management Reviews, GeoArchive, Environment Index, GEOBASE, INSPEC, Technology Collection, and Web of Science.
