Energy, material, and resource efficiency for industrial decarbonization
Decarbonizing the chemical industry
Inclusive innovation in just transitions
Inclusive innovation addresses the challenges and aspirations of poor and marginalised groups in society. Attention towards these groups is also important for social justice in sustainable transitions. How can research insights from inclusive innovation contribute to just transitions? In this paper, based on original mixed methods data, analysis built around levels of inclusion is applied empirically to the case of smart local energy systems in t…
Decarbonizing the oil refining industry
Decarbonizing the iron and steel industry
User innovation, niche construction and regime destabilization in heat pump transitions
Research frontiers for multi-system dynamics and deep transitions
Megaprojects
Between hope, hype, and hell
Conceptualizations and articulations of ‘the future’ play a persistent and important role in discussions about technology adoption and the broader domain of sustainability transitions. The Sociology of Expectations, part of the transitions and science and technology studies literature, specifically focusses on the performative role that desirable expectations play in the development and marketing of a technology. In this paper we argue that these…
