Abstract
This study aims to explore how firm decision-makers view the role of external Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) investment in relation to sustainable value creation (SVC) and competitive advantage. To investigate this novel and broad topic, the study develops a tentative framework for how CDR could potentially create competitive advantage through SVC. Consequently, the paper utilized a qualitative multiple-case study with pattern matching against the framework to both validate predictions and uncover novel perspectives. The study found that the framework could predict some outcomes relatively well but also extended and modified it to fit emergent themes from the cases. The most prominent key finding is how CDR investments can contribute to the... (More)
