-driven environmental innovation may impose additional costs to firms and lower their profits. On the other hand, eco-innovators could … profit from lower uncertainty in innovation due to regulatory standards and demand-generating effects of regulation. In this … paper we analyse (a) whether regulation-driven environmental innovation generate similar innovation success compared to …

This study investigates the effects of an R&D subsidy scheme on participating firms' net R&D investment. Making use of a specific policy design in Belgium that explicitly distinguishes between research and development grants, we estimate direct and cross-scheme effects on research versus...
