Innovation, Green technologies, Green patents, Solar energy, Wind powerAbstract
Green technologies aimed at renewable energy generation emerge as an alternative to mitigate the effects of climate change and increase energy efficiency. In line with the priority examination of Green Patents, aims to speed up the process of granting technologies categorized as environmentally friendly. The analysis of green patents triggers interest in several authors, and this article aims to present the state of the art in green patents related to wind and solar technologies. To this end, 362 documents related to the theme were systematically analyzed. Based on this research, it was concluded that the laws influence the Green Patents; environmental policies encourage green innovation R&D by driving innovative activities in environmental technologies, especially in solar and wind renewables. It was also found that patent data are indicators of innovation, and patent acceleration programs accelerate the dissemination of technological knowledge in green technologies.
