Eco-innovation is developing new ideas, promoting new operations, products and processes to protect the environment, so obtaining environmental sustainability. Eco-innovation supports the survival of the companies as proposing an acceptable image for these companies to stakeholders. The innovation which decreases the environmental damages and hereby develops the sustainability of the firms, including eco-products, eco-processes and eco-organizational factors is called eco-innovation. Ecoinnovation is one of the aims of European Union (EU), and establishes a part of the development and economic policies. Technological progress makes the companies benefit from eco-innovation. Besides the environmental benefits; there are also cost related gains for the companies which apply eco-innovation. Organizations take eco-innovative actions because of the governmental pressures, consumers' pleasures and the great risk of changing climate in all over the world. Climate change, ozone layer deplation, acidification, eutrophication, decreasing biodiversity and land degradation are some of the environmental threats that face the humanity and also the companies' survival. Hence multiple stakeholders of the societies expect the companies to be sensitive about eco-innovation to protect the environment in order to save the nature and human lives. Eco-innovation is one of the leading strategies to promote resource and energy efficiency and create a low a carbon society in EU; because this strategy has other advantages like decreasing the costs of material purchasing. So it leads EU to be more competitive in global world. Eco-innovation is simply contributing to the sustainable company survival by challenging the environmental issues in the eyes of multiple stakeholders in the society. In this study we have comparisons between Turkey and EU in the framework of ecoinnovative behaviours of the firms.

“…They are new or significantly improved products, processes, organisational or marketing methods that are more beneficial to the environment than alternatives and also benefit the enterprise that implements them (Rozkrut, 2014;Ziółkowski, 2008;Kemp & Pearson, 2008;Ottman, 2011). The primary objective of eco-innovation is to benefit the environment and to reduce the negative impact of economic activity on the natural environment by reducing energy consumption, the consumption of natural resources or the emission of harmful substances (Ottman et al, 2006).…”

The aim of the article is to analyse the diversity of the level of eco-innovation in the EU Member States in the field of resource efficiency. For this purpose, the resource efficiency outcomes indicator and its sub-indicators were used. The study was prepared on the basis of data from the General Directorate for the Environment. Using positional statistical measures, an analysis of the diversification of the eco-innovation level of the European Union Member States in 2012-2021 was carried out, and the trends of changes in this differentiation were identified. The analysis showed that the difference between the level of eco-innovation in the indicators studied in the EU Member States does not decrease, and there is still a very large difference between the most and the least innovative countries. To date, we have not found this kind of research, so the research carried out fills the research gap in this area.

“…The research of the essence of innovations, their strategic role in ensuring sustainable development, and the search for sources of their financing is given great attention in the scientific literature. Rozkrut (2014) analyzes the importance of creating, implementing and developing innovations that contribute to the transition to sustainable development. Attention is focused on the need for interaction between environmentally oriented innovations and investments that are at the heart of "green" economic growth.…”

Nowadays most developed and some developing countries are moving to the path of "green" economy and strive to develop in the direction of sustainable development. An important aspect is the development of eco-innovations that contribute to reducing the negative impact on the environment through the creation of fundamentally new products, processes and systems with minimal use of natural resources and virtually zero environmental pollution. Such clean technologies are possible in the field of renewable energy, water resources management, "green" construction, waste reduction, etc. The vast accumulated international experience of countries that develop eco-innovations serves as a positive experience for the development of this direction in Kazakhstan. Energy efficiency and renewable energy resources should be considered as national priorities of the country, be integrated into energy and socio-economic policies, and become the basis for the development of state programs for sustainable development. Kazakhstan strives to achieve its goals for sustainable development, including improving the environmental situation in the country. This paper focuses on financial issues in ecoinnovations, it represents analyses of current trends in this sphere in Kazakhstan.
