Abstract

The article examines the relationship between environmental innovation and green development in the interests of ensuring sustainable development and minimizing the impact on climate change. In order to achieve sustainable development, many companies are introducing eco-innovations and green technologies. The use of environmental innovations in production directly affects the ecological state of the country. The ratings of the countries of the world on the environmental efficiency index, on the level of innovation, on the level of innovative economies are given. The problem of ecological and economic development of the system in the context of globalization is urgent. The aim of the study is to compare the use of green technologies and environmental innovations by leading countries in their economies. In the course of the study, the objects under study were identified in the number of 60 countries with ratings on three indicators. The method of calculating the indices of each rating is given. An econometric analysis of the relationship between the position of each country in the ranking, taking into account the research indicators, was carried out. A cluster analysis was carried out, which made it possible to group countries by ecological and innovative indicators into single typical clusters:"eco-innovative leaders"; "eco-innovative innovators"; "eco-innovative prospectors"; "eco-innovative conservators". The conclusion is made about the existing links between the level of innovation, the level of innovative economies and the environmental efficiency index.
