Patent Innovation plays a critical role in driving sustainability. We look at sustainability through a patent lens.
Inventions have the potential to drive sustainability by creating new and innovative products, processes, and technologies that address environmental, social, and economic challenges. The patent data provides an evidence based approach about companies that are supporting sustainable development that benefit both people and the planet.
The team at LexisNexis® Classification takes a closer look at the companies actively filing patents in technologies that promote sustainability in their relevant sectors.
The LexisNexis Classification CEO explains the thinking behind ‘In situ’ valuation.
A sustainable food system tries to reduce its impact on the environment, represented by greenhouse gas emissions, the use of land and water resources, pollution, depletion of phosphorus, and the impact of chemical products such as herbicides and pesticides.
Oatly made its market debut on the Nasdaq, in May 2021. Trading then at 60% over the IPO price puts a US $16 billion value on the company. So how does a decades old Swedish oat milk company transform itself into a high growth business and one of the hottest IPOs of 2021?
This report focuses on patent innovations in three key sustainable food substitute areas. Our strategic analysis uncovered the following:

Agriculture sustainability is the practice of minimizing damages to the environment, reducing and recycling waste, while producing sufficient food to sustain humanity.
With the global population growing by 1.1% every year, finding a sustainable agricultural model that produces sufficient food whilst minimizing waste is undoubtedly the biggest challenge. This report looks through a patent innovation lens at the technologies behind two key areas; wastewater reduction and reducing crop destruction, and uncovers the following:

How is patent innovation propelling a sustainable agriculture?
It’s becoming clear the future of the car is electric. Yet despite an almost continuous flow of media articles announcing new models and promises to phase out all new petrol vehicles, less than 1% of all cars on the road are purely electric. A lot of big players have large pending portfolios (suggesting future inventions rather than maintaining current inventions). Some of the globe’s largest economies have imposed a ban of new petrol/diesel car sales as soon as 2030.
Why then, in a world fully embracing technology in other aspects of life, has it taken more than two decades to reach just a 1% market share?
The answer lies in infrastructure. This report on electric vehicles explores the pace and scale of innovation and looks at patent innovations by the key players. It covers the following:

We put a lens on the inventions made in critical technologies powering the energy transition. In this report we take a look at next generation batteries exploring three specific alternatives to lithium-ion:
How else is investment into key technologies in this area driving our transition to cleaner energy?
This oil and gas report analyses the inventions made by the seven supermajors in the critical technologies powering the energy transition.
In looking at sustainability through a patent lens, our patent data analysis found that the supermajors technology innovation is more evident in the Materials, Mechanical, and Sensors and Optics categories.
