Lessons from Sweden 2003–2008 (2010, background): “…capital goods suppliers benefitted from this generous support both by the creation of a domestic market and by the transfer of some of the support to the capital goods suppliers through high equipment prices, which to a large part were used for technology development (Bergek and Jacobsson, 2003).”
The emergence and troubled growth of a 'biopower' innovation system in Sweden (2008, background): “This was, for instance, the case in Germany where the current regime (power sector) lost much legitimacy after the Chernobyl accident (Bergek and Jacobsson, 2003).”

Wind power development in Sweden: Global policies and local obstacles (2007, background): “Bergek [2] and Bergek and Jacobsson [2, 3 ] rely on a so-called innovation systems approach in which technology diffusion is the outcome—not of individual firm decisions—but of the relationships between the actors, markets, networks and legal rules that together make up the ‘wind power innovation sy”
A multi-level perspective on innovation ecosystems for path-breaking innovation (2017, neutral): “Examples of this would be the German 1,000 Roof and 100,000 Roof programs that provided financial support to owners of residential photovoltaic solar panels, building the foundation for the German residential solar market to grow exponentially for more than two decades (Bergek and Jacobsson, 2003).”
