Journal ArticleDOI
Functions of innovation systems: A new approach for analysing technological change
TL;DR: It is described that the emergence of a new innovation system and changes in existing innovation systems co-evolve with the process of technological change, and a method for systematically mapping those processes taking place in innovation systems and resulting in technological change is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
International bioenergy transport costs and energy balance
TL;DR: In this article, a tool was developed to consistently compare the possible bioenergy supply chains and assess the influence of key parameters, such as distance, timing and scale on performance, on performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cumulative causation in the formation of a technological innovation system: The case of biofuels in the Netherlands
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose an alteration that improves the analysis of dynamics, especially with respect to emerging innovation systems, by expanding on the technological innovation systems and system functions literature, and employing the method of event history analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
The bumpy road of biomass gasification in the Netherlands: Explaining the rise and fall of an emerging innovation system
TL;DR: In this article, the authors apply the concept of System Functions of Innovation Systems to provide an explanation of the success or failure of an emerging technology, i.e., biomass gasification, with empirical data on the evolution of this technology in the Netherlands during 1980-2004.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding the formative stage of technological innovation system development: The case of natural gas as an automotive fuel
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the dynamics of this build-up process by mapping the development of seven key activities: so-called system functions, and they provide strategic insights for practitioners that aspire to support such motors of innovation.
