Adoption phases of Green Information Technology in enhanced sustainability: A bibliometric study 2021

Research related to Green Information Technology (GIT) has been consolidating its pathway in the last two decades, becoming a well-established research stream. Due to increasing interest, there is a necessity for mapping the related scientific production, providing evidence of future work gaps. Based on previous bibliometric studies, a portfolio categorisation – divided into three phases and 17 discussion topics – has been elaborated to perform the proposed systematic literature review within the applied social science to answer the following research questions: How is the topic-related academic research evolving? What are the main research categories for each GIT life cycle phase (pre-adoption, adoption and post-adoption)? After presenting the systematic longitudinal review, the relevant academic discussion within each stage is presented. Results indicate that scholars currently focus on the post-adoption stage, investigating the external impacts of GIT solutions adopted by companies. GITs are increasingly studied in a social context, no longer restricted to the institutional environment, but there is still room for quali-quantitative research related to this phase. Finally, this research presents decision-making situations in adopting GIT (pre-adoption), the development of practices in organisations (adoption), and the benefits and metrics of the impact of implementation (post-adoption) for professionals interested in the subject. Limitations and future research avenues under the present study’s discussion topics and new discussion clusters such as cryptocurrency and blockchain are indicated.
