Summary: Although many studies have examined eco-innovation in various industries, the factors driving eco-innovation in the tourism sector have not been identified. This study investigates the impact of intensive use of knowledge sources on eco-innovation in tourism firms, as well as the mediating role of traditional firm orientation in product and/or process innovation. Two sets of data were used: panel data from 199 tourism firms in Spain from 2011 to 2015, and primary data collected via questionnaire from 198 tourism firms in 2021 during the Covid-19 pandemic. The results indicate a significant distinction between product/service and process innovation, with tourism firms relying on process innovation for eco-innovation.
