The Role of Hydrocarbons in the Global Energy Agenda: The Focus on Liquefied Natural Gas (2020, background): “However, despite the fact that the focus of key policy provisions can be made on the basis of climatic (Kyoto Protocol) and technological (Paris Agreement) considerations, the objective fact is that there are no reliable scientific results showing how exactly technological factors influence policy d”
The multiple roles of state investment banks in low-carbon energy finance: An analysis of Australia, the UK and Germany (2018, background): “While, due to innovation, the cost of low-carbon technologies has significantly fallen in recent years (Huenteler et al., 2015; Schmidt and Sewerin, 2017; Trancik et al., 2015), many projects are still perceived as risky by investors and are not financed (CPI, 2013; Hall et al., 2015; Jacobsson and…”
Low‐carbon transition risks for finance (2020, background): “Technological trajectories can also influence policy by opening up policy space through newly affordable alternatives (Schmidt & Sewerin, 2017) and closing it down through path dependencies (Fouquet, 2016).”

The co-evolution of policy mixes and socio-technical systems: Towards a conceptual framework of policy mix feedback in sustainability transitions (2019, background): “Consequently, the interplay of technological change, politics and policy processes remains understudied (Schmidt and Sewerin, 2017)”
Climate change and COP26: Are digital technologies and information management part of the problem or the solution? An editorial reflection and call to action (2022, background): “While the low-carbon energy technologies contribute toward mitigating climate change (Schmidt & Sewerin, 2017), there is a need for further research on how social-psychological factors, lifestyles, behavioral patterns, etc. will help organizations and individuals to adopt such technologies that can…”
Harnessing theories of the policy process for analysing the politics of sustainability transitions: A critical survey (2017, background): “We argue that both entry points are possible and that in both cases future research should investigate both the direct and indirect links between policy processes and sustainability transitions and the co-evolution between policy and socio-technical change (Rogge and Reichardt 2016; Schmidt and Sewe”
