TL;DR: In this article, a systematic process involving a three-phase word frequency analysis, cluster analysis, and a search on potential research topics helps to provide enough potential articles related to PPP research and reduce arbitrariness and subjectivity involved in the research topic analysis.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the energy aspects of a Private Finance Initiative (PFI) project to refurbish and re-build a local authority's entire stock of sheltered accommodation to high environmental standards and find that whereas more conventional procurement processes tend to increase systemic vulnerability, a user focussed process driven through PFI competitive dialogue is beginning to motivate some developers to adopt innovative approaches to energy system development.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the factors that influence private sector landlords when considering energy efficiency improvements to their tenanted homes, and find that government policy has consistently failed to engage private-sector landlords in the issue of energy efficiency and thus measures must be taken to understand the motivations of landlords in order to design effective incentives and interventions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the results of an empirical study in which project managers were asked to re-draw the traditional Iron Triangle with the inclusion of sustainability, and the results indicate that sustainability is seen by practitioners as a key factor to be included in project planning and implementation, there is disagreement as to where the issue sits in relation to traditional time, cost, quality constraints and how sustainability principles should be integrated into projects.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the impact of working within and across different levels and how jointly they help to work towards addressing carbon reductions in a partnership setting between a business school and various organisations.
