Abstract

This study aimed to verify how the adoption of green innovations influences in the obtention of competitive advantage of companies in the electrical and electronic Brazilian sectors. Quantitative in nature, the study adopted the conceptual model proposed by [Chen et al. (2006). The influence of green innovation performance on corporate advantage in Taiwan. Journal of Business Ethics, 67(4), 331–339]. Using as target population companies linked to the Brazilian Association of Electrical and Electronics Industry (ABINEE), the sample consisted of 113 organisations representing 20.62% of this population. The results showed that the level of adoption of innovative green practices among the participating companies is high and that the relationship between products innovation and green processes and the achievement of competitive advantage is significant, but at a moderate level.
