Title
Introduction of EEPSE green economy index for the analysis of regional trends
Abstract
The importance of analysing green economy has long been acknowledged by the international scientific community. Still there is strong demand for a comprehensive model which would serve as a scoreboard to assess a country’s progress on green track and identify regional developments. Having dwelled upon this task, this article suggests using an original method – so called EEPSE Green Economy Index (which combines educational, economic, political, societal and environmental indicators), based on the Quintuple Helix Model, to analyse green economy trends in the EU countries. The results of the present study advocate the efficiency of such a tool and show its potential in performing current analysis, as well as predicting future tendencies related to sustainable development.
