The innovativeness of the green economy can be considered both in relation to total innovation and eco-innovation. The aim of the research is to assess the level of innovation of enterprises operating in the green economy sectors, with particular emphasis on eco-innovation. The research was carried out in 2017, using CATI (Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing) technology, among 578 randomly selected enterprises of the SME sector directly related to the green economy, located in the Warminsko-Mazurskie Voivodeship. The analyses were carried out in relation to data on innovativeness of enterprises collected by the Central Statistical Office and Eurostat data regarding the development of this sector in EU countries. The analyses show that the level of innovativeness of companies in the green economy sector in the Warminsko-Mazurskie Voivodship is low and process innovations are the ones that are most often introduced which are related to the search for resource-efficient production technologies and services (eco-innovation). Authors’ research and literature review indicate that there are No universal recipes for increasing innovation and competitiveness of economies; however, the high level of innovation, including eco-innovativeness is characterized by the economies of countries that invest in research and development, human and social capital and mobilize various institutions around common purposes.
