Citations in the corpus

• The (non-)politics of managing low carbon socio-technical transitions (2009, background): “This second purpose is more explicitly normative (Elzen et al. 2004, Weber and Hemmelskamp 2005).”
• The foundations of the environmental rebound effect and its contribution towards a general framework (2016, background): “…shifting from addressing single environmental 626 issues (e.g. increases in energy efficiency to reduce oil consumption) towards dealing with multiple 627 issues simultaneously (e.g. electric mobility to mitigate global warming, urban air pollution, noise, 628 etc.) (Elzen et al., 2004).”
• The co-evolution of policy mixes and socio-technical systems: Towards a conceptual framework of policy mix feedback in sustainability transitions (2019, background): “Therefore as seen through the lens of our framework, the argument would be that policy mix design should not only create incentives for emerging niche actors but also for powerful actors to support the transition (Raven et al., 2016; Kemp and Rotmans, 2004; Markard et al., 2015).”
• Prospects for Jatropha biofuels in Tanzania : an analysis with strategic niche management (2008, background): “This shortcoming of SNM has also been recognised by Elzen et al. (2004) who state that ‘from the wide variety of alternatives developed at niche level, it is necessary to select and focus, and to assess which of them should be stimulated in what way’.”
• Environmental Innovations, Local Networks and Internationalization (2012, background): “On this basis, the need of investigating EIs with a plural theoretical framework and an eclectic methodology has come out (e.g. Elzen et al., 2004).”
• Sustainability-oriented innovation systems – managing the green transformation (2012, unknown): “Instead, this school of thought analyses the evolution of ‘systems innovations’ that would enable larger jumps in environmental efficiency (Elzen et al., 2004, p. 1).”
• Policy integration strategy and the development of the ‘green economy’: foundations and implementation patterns (2010, background): “…innovation system and/or in a lead (or niche) market (Cowan and Hultén 1996, Kemp et al. 1998, Christiansen and Buen 2002, Beise 2004, Elzen et al. 2004, Jacobsson and Bergek 2004, Beise and Rennings 2005, Ömer-Rieder and Whitelegg 2005, van der Bergh et al. 2006, Hendry et al.…”
• Experimenting towards a low-carbon city: Policy evolution and nested structure of innovation (2018, methodology): “It contains a set of heterogeneous, slow-changing factors, but it also contains shocks and surprises, such as wars, M AN US CR IP T AC CE PT ED rapidly rising oil prices, which are beyond the direct influence of actors and cannot be changed at will (Elzen et al., 2004; Geels, 2005a).”
