TL;DR: In this article, a comparative analysis of low-carbon electricity transitions in Germany and the UK between 1990 and 2014 is presented, showing that Germany is on a substitution pathway, enacted by new entrants deploying small-scale renewable electricity technologies (RETs), while the UK is on an economic transformation pathway, implemented by incumbent actors deploying large-scale RETs.

From Niche to Mass Markets in High Technology: The Case of Photovoltaics in Germany
Gerhard Fuchs,Sandra Wassermann +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors establish linkages between the debate on Varieties of Capitalism (VoC) and discussions in innovation research to propose a definition for radical innovations and identify the mechanisms of concerted action that enabled rather than prevented (as VoC theory would predict) this radical innovation in the German case.
Journal ArticleDOI
Towards a low carbon future: a phenomenology of local electricity experiments in Germany
Gerhard Fuchs,Nele Hinderer +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a characterizing feature of the German electricity transition is that it started as a movement arising from the civil society and later on turned into a movement favoring decentralized forms of energy production and distribution as well as local control over energy questions.
