1. Introduction
The transition to a circular and decarbonize economy ( EMF, 2019, EEA, 2019 ) is driven by the co-evolution of different transitions occur- ring in different geographical and impact dimensions ( EEA, 2020 ). States, macro regions, socio-economic and innovation systems, and districts are the socio-economic-technological spaces in which new business models and innovations emerge and develop ( Diaz Lopez et al. 2019; Lüdeke-Freund et al., 2019 ). To create the most favourable con- ditions to ensure that the green and circular economy (CE) is the dominant paradigm, governments are required to implement policies for correcting market imperfections. More specifically, governments should provide adequate economic incentives to producers and consumers while pursuing sustainable production for the former and a sustainable lifestyle for the latter. Regions and territories are social and economic institutions where a large portion of the transitions develop and exert their impacts due to the decentralization of policies, especially in areas such as environmental protection and innovation ( Truffer and Coenen, 2012 ). In addition, resources are managed mainly at the local level, where negative externalities also occur and sustainability policies are implemented. For the design of systemic policies that encourage a CE, it is therefore necessary to learn more about the local driving factors of CE- oriented consumption and production behaviour ( Cainelli et al., 2020 ). In addition, social acceptability and new circular business models, that can touch on renewable energy, are jointly affected by how con- sumers, citizens and workers are involved in the new circular economy. The drivers of economic demand and social acceptability move together: the role of consumers as citizens for the CE is a part of the broader policy mix aimed at stimulating circular thinking on the supply side of the market ( Schr¨oder et al., 2019 ). As far as conceptual aspects are concerned, we mainly refer to Zoboli et al. (2020) , which broadly focuses on the CE-Decarbonisation nexus, in ☆ This paper is promoted by Institute on Sustainable Economic Growth (IRCrES-CNR) on behalf of Increasing Social Awareness and Acceptance of biomass project (ISAAC project grant agreement No. 691875), an European project financed by Horizon 2020 Programme. * Corresponding author at: Ministry of Economy and Finance – Directorate of Economic and Fiscal Studies, Via dei Normanni, 5, 00184 Rome, Italy.
