"We live in a time where we have reached broad agreement on ‘why’ to act for sustainability in business. The challenge is now to understand ‘how’. In this book, sustainability and innovation experts Florian Lüdeke-Freund, Henning Breuer, and Lorenzo Massa explore sustainable business model design. What it is, why it matters, and – most importantly – how to make it work. They present 45 patterns for the design of next generation sustainable business models, illustrating how innovative companies and visionary entrepreneurs have implemented them, what sustainability challenges they have solved and what innovation opportunities they have captured.The principles and practice of sustainable business model design are woven together here as never before. This book is a long overdue guide and inspiration on how to design next generation sustainable business models."

'It is in exploring the complementarities of business model innovation and sustainability transitions where this book makes a major contribution. Bridging related but so far separate areas of research and generating new insights for strategy and policy making is key to destabilising unsustainable business practices, and to accelerate processes of transformative and sustainable change. This book is an important stepping-stone in a much larger journey toward more sustainable modes of production and consumption.' - Jochen Markard, Senior researcher and Lecturer at the Group for Sustainability and Technology within the Department of Management, Technology, and Economics of ETH Zurich. Can innovations in business change society? Can innovations in society change business? These two questions have become critically urgent in recent years, but are rarely considered together. 'Business Models for Sustainability Transitions' therefore asks, can contemplating both concepts together result in a flourishing, sustainable future? Technology alone cannot save us. We cannot consciously consume our way out of trouble. This book represents a start at bridging the dynamic world of business model innovation with the constant and unprecedented transitions underway in the world around us. For researchers, practitioners, and policy makers, the coupling of the two questions has the potential to unlock answers to our grand global challenges with responses that are at the same time rapid and enduring. This work offers unique and considered glimpses into what it may take to harness wide-ranging innovations for the collective good.

Dieses Buch beschäftigt sich mit Biokraftstoffen und Biokraftstoffprojekten. Die Autoren zeigen auf, welche rechtlichen, agrarischen, ökologischen und ökonomischen Rahmenbedingungen von Biokraftstoffen beachtet werden müssen. Die Betrachtung dieser Rahmenbedingungen und weiterer – eher anlagenbezogener – Faktoren ermöglicht es dann, Rückschlüsse auf die Realisierung von Biokraftstoffvorhaben zu ziehen. Besonderes Augenmerk wird dabei auf den sensiblen Themenkomplex der Nachhaltigkeit von Biokraftstoffen gerichtet. Die anhaltende Diskussion unerwünschter sozialer, ökologischer und ökonomischer Effekte hat zu neuen und bislang nicht abschließend definierten gesellschaftlichen und politischen Ansprüchen an die Biokraftstoffindustrie geführt. Der Inhalt - Biokraftstoffmarkt: Status Quo und Perspektive - Biokraftstoffe - Verfahrenstechnik und Anforderungen - Biokraftstoffprojekte - Gestaltung und Umsetzung Die Herausgeber Dr. Jörg Böttcher arbeitet als Bankkaufmann und ist Lehrbeauftragter an mehreren Hochschulen.
