How socio-political streams shape sustainability transitions: The case of a European rail network
Electric vehicle adoption intentions among UK residents parking in shared and public spaces
A lack of charging opportunities is cited as one of the main barriers to the adoption of plug-in battery electric vehicles (BEVs). Charging opportunities are even more limited for the millions of households across Europe without the space to charge a vehicle at home, but research has not previously targeted these households. This study aims to fill this gap by assessing whether and how such residential parking constraints shape norms, attitudes a…
Government-owned enterprises and sustainability: Review and research agenda
Government-owned enterprises (GOEs) can play a promising role in sustainability transitions because of their presence in energy-producing and energy-intensive sectors. However, empirical insights into the possible contributions and limitations of GOEs towards the many facets of sustainability transitions are scattered. This study is the first to provide a comprehensive review on the roles of GOEs in sustainability transitions, and to identify imp…
Sustainable energy experiments and demonstrations: Reviewing research, market and societal trends
Research into the impact of innovative sustainable energy experiments and demonstrations is crucial to diversifying, scaling up, and accelerating the sustainable energy transition. Although there is vast research into sustainable energy experiments and demonstrations, research literature offers a fragmented collection of findings. A coherent overview of themes and insights regarding the transformative impact of innovative sustainable energy exper…
Organizations as users in sustainability transitions: Embedding Vehicle-to-Grid technology in the United Kingdom
This study explores organizations as users of innovations in sustainability transitions. Existing literature concentrates on organizations that are producers in energy-intensive sectors. And yet, transitions also greatly affect organizations as users of innovations in everyday contexts. We develop a lens on organizational embedding of technological innovations during transitions using social practice theory and neoinstitutional theory. In this vi…
Not more but different: A comment on the transitions research agenda
Weak spots for car-sharing in The Netherlands? The geography of socio-technical regimes and the adoption of niche innovations
A geographical analysis of sustainability transitions allows one to better understand the emergence and upscaling of sustainable innovations. We first theorize about the spatial heterogeneity of regime, niche and landscape within the Multi-Level Perspective and then apply our framework to car-sharing adoption across all Dutch neighbourhoods. We distinguish between business-to-consumer and peer-to-peer car-sharing, which differ in terms of busines…
Virtual user communities contributing to upscaling innovations in transitions: The case of electric vehicles
Users are increasingly acknowledged as important actors fostering those fundamental socio-technical innovations needed to achieve a sustainable society. In the literature, users have so far been portrayed mostly to play a role in early phases of technology formation. However, more recently users have become important players in the upscaling of various innovations. With the advent of new social media, users may interact effortlessly across large …
