Abstract: Climate change can have extremely diverse impacts on different spatial levels depending on regional characteristics. To tackle climate change in a sustainable way on a regional level should be a key priority for all regions. The role of innovation in regional competitiveness is widely studied, however, 'climate innovation' is a research niche in the regional development research field. This paper gives an overview and a typology about climate innovation options from the regional development perspective focusing on climate planning at the NUTS-3 level in Hungary. Our key findings show that the role of innovation was not considered as a key factor in the Hungarian regional climate change policy documents and climate innovation as a support tool for competitiveness and sustainable regional development is not recognised.
