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
Functions of innovation systems as a framework to understand sustainable technological change: Empirical evidence for earlier claims
Marko P. Hekkert,Simona Negro +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors build on five empirical studies related to renewable energy technologies to test whether the functions of innovation systems framework is a valid framework to analyse processes of technological change and also test the claim made in previous publications that the interactions between system functions accelerate innovation system emergence and growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Why does renewable energy diffuse so slowly? A review of innovation system problems
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a literature review of studies that have analyzed the troublesome trajectory of different renewable energy technologies (RETs) development and diffusion in different, mainly European countries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Explaining the failure of the Dutch innovation system for biomass digestion : A functional analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply the "functions of innovation systems" framework to analyze the role of government policy in both inducing and blocking the development of biomass energy conversion in the Netherlands.
Journal ArticleDOI
Keeping sustainable innovation on a leash? Exploring incumbents’ institutional strategies
TL;DR: In this article, the authors identified a preliminary set of empirical strategies: providing information and arguments to policy makers and the general public, as well as strategically setting technical standards, thus temporarily keeping sustainable innovation on a leash.
