None Innovation and Sustainable Growth in a Digital Age PDF

As well as evaluating the role of regulation in regulating innovative technologies, this book: identifies ways in which technology can facilitate innovation in the post-COVID era; illustrates how key actors, such as central banks, can facilitate the transition process to a net-zero based carbon emissions phase; illustrates how innovative techniques and technology can interact with concepts such as green finance to facilitate a smooth transition to a net-zero carbon emissions economy; and highlights challenges which may be encountered during the transition process, and how to address such risks.

The topics covered in this volume also include the role of sensor technologies, as well as those technologies which can facilitate a smooth gradual transition to a net-zero carbon emissions economy; digital payments in the post-COVID era (embracing wholesale and retail CBDCs, as well as other technological platforms); the role of central banks, technological innovation, and tech firms in addressing transition risks and enhancing sustainable growth; the feasibility of achieving a net zero based carbon emissions economy; as well as the role of renewable energy in the path towards a sustainable future.
