Purpose- The urgent need for environmental sustainability has propelled the world towards a paradigm shift known as the "green transformation". This transformative process aims to reconcile economic development with ecological balance by adopting a holistic approach towards sustainability. At its core, the green transformation revolves around the concept of a "green economy," wherein the production and consumption patterns are aligned with principles of environmental responsibility, resource efficiency, and social equity. Key elements of green transformation examine the various sectors that are undergoing significant changes, such as energy, transportation, agriculture, and urban planning, all driven by the goal of minimizing carbon emissions and ecological footprints. The green transformation seeks to decouple economic growth from environmental degradation by promoting renewable energy sources, implementing circular economy practices, and adopting clean technologies. Methodology- This study employed a bibliometric analysis to examine the existing literature on the investigation and application of green transformation. A total of 905 publications from Scopus and 645 publications from Web of Science databases is analysed. Findings- The findings revealed that interest in the concept of green transformation has grown significantly in academia, both in terms of volume and across various disciplines. Moreover, future research in the field of green transformation is expected to build upon current knowledge regarding technology and sustainability while exploring new frontiers, such as the impact of green transformation in digitalized environments. Conclusion- By employing cutting-edge technologies to delve into current research, this study offers valuable insights to comprehensively grasp recent findings on green transformation. It is important to note that the review's inclusiveness and comprehensiveness were constrained by the size of the selected literature.
