Environmental management accounting and green innovation: a systematic literature review

Environmental management accounting (EMA) and green innovation (GI) are topics that receive much attention in practice and academia because they can solve environmental issues related to sustainability. Investigation of the link between EMA and GI has also increased recently but is still quite fragmentary and not systematic. Our research approaches a systematic literature review to further clarify the possible relationship between EMA and GI, thereby providing an overview of this topic. The research collects data from many international databases with the support of the VOSviewer tool to visualise the results more. Forty-three articles were analysed after complying with the PRISMA flow diagram, and the research presented three main topics about the relationship between EMA and GI, which are: 1) the influence of EMA on GI; 2) the interaction between EMA and GI; 3) the influence of GI on EMA. Finally, the future direction is also mentioned.
