Between grassroots and treetops: community power and institutional dependence in the renewable energy sector in Denmark, Sweden and the Netherlands. (2018, background): “T improved by strategic niche management (SNM) [14,15] or by intermediaries [11,16].”
Local Demonstrations for Global Transitions—Dynamics across Governance Levels Fostering Socio-Technical Regime Change Towards Sustainability (2012, background): “Transition scholars point out that pressures at a macro-social level, shocks (e.g. oil supply shortages) and a destabilization of the socio-technical regime (e.g. political pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions) are equally needed to induce transformational change (Schot & Geels, 2008).”
Sustainability transitions in developing countries: Stocktaking, new contributions and a research agenda (2017, background): “These practices of individual demonstration projects or heavily subsidized programmes result in a pattern of diffusion of technologies that is different from diffusion patterns of niche technologies in the European context, in which niche experiments have been studied by a number of sustainability t”
Three frames for innovation policy: R&D, systems of innovation and transformative change (2018, background): “This is indeed important, but in terms of failure we would like to stress a particular form of reflexivity which is connected to deep learning (or second-order learning) which happens when actors question their underlying assumptions for example about mobility and energy consumption (Schot and Geels”
Evaluating sustainability transitions pathways: Bridging analytical approaches to address governance challenges (2015, positive): “The true value of these ‘ real-world experiments ’ (Schot and Geels 2008) is that they reveal emergent properties in system change processes that are invisible or ignored by other approaches: the practical realities, emergent tensions and problems stemming from new ways of doing things.”
Transition pathways revisited: Established firms as multi-level actors in the heavy vehicle industry (2015, background): “While theories of strategic niche management (Schot et al., 1994; Hoogma et al., 2002; Schot and Geels, 2008) tend to emphasise competition between technologies (cf.”
Co-producing Transition: Innovation Processes in Farms Adhering to Solidarity-based Purchase Groups (GAS) in Tuscany, Italy (2011, background): “Strategic niche management (Schot and Geels, 2008) can be used as a powerful policy tool to strengthen social change ‘from below’, and to create a stronger capacity to adapt to change.”
Transportation and the environment. (2011, background): “One challenge is the tendency in niche experiments to push for a certain technology and to neglect the necessary coevolutionary social and cultural dynamics (100, 134, 135).”
Demand, challenges, and innovation. Making sense of new trends in innovation policy (2018, background): “This is a curious shortcoming, given their explicit mentioning of the importance of demand conditions in the original ‘Aho report’ and subsequent policy documents (COM 2010), considering the conceptual claims of transition theory about the importance of demand (Schot and Geels 2008) as well as the a”
