| Abstract: | This paper discusses the interplay between extended producer responsibility (EPR) and technological change and innovation (TCI) in Norway. It is asked whether Norwegian EPR policy has an effect on TCI and, if so, whether it makes any difference how the EPR policies are designed. By carrying out a comparative study between the plastic packaging (PP) sector and electrical and electronic (EE) sector in Norway, it is concluded that there is a correlation between Norwegian EPR policy and TCI, but the causality is rather weak. |
