Sustainable Innovation looks at breakthroughs from a technological, economic, and sociological standpoint to help society consume and create more sustainably. The study looks at the design of an electric automobile, for example, in conjunction with the necessary infrastructure (charging stations), the market's development, rules and regulations, and the larger consequences on mobility patterns, urban planning, and climate change. Multiple parties, such as the government, business, social organizations, knowledge institutes, and consumers, are always involved in this design process.
