EasyChair Preprint 12404

Abstract

This research study examines the challenges and opportunities associated with implementing green technologies in Azerbaijan, with a specific focus on sustainability and innovation. Azerbaijan, as a developing country, faces numerous environmental and economic challenges that necessitate the adoption of sustainable and innovative practices.

The paper begins by providing an overview of the current environmental situation in Azerbaijan, highlighting the importance of addressing issues such as air and water pollution, waste management, and climate change. It then delves into the challenges that hinder the implementation of green technologies in the country, including limited awareness and understanding, inadequate regulatory frameworks, and financial constraints.

However, the paper also identifies several opportunities for promoting the adoption of green technologies in Azerbaijan. These opportunities include the availability of renewable energy sources, the presence of a young and educated workforce, and the government's commitment to sustainable development. The study suggests that by leveraging these opportunities, Azerbaijan can significantly enhance its environmental sustainability and drive economic growth.

Furthermore, the research explores the role of innovation in facilitating the implementation of green technologies. It argues that fostering a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship can lead to the development and adoption of new technologies that address environmental challenges. The study also highlights the importance of collaboration between government, academia, and industry in driving innovation in the green technology sector.
