The future of modern societies depends on their ability to deal
with the challenge of climate change in the coming decades. One
essential component is a better understanding of innovation
processes in the energy sector. This book focuses on sustainability
innovations in renewable energies, combined heat and power, and
energy service contracting, and analyses the institutions, actors
and functions within the innovation system. Of particular interest
is the question of whether the joint effect of EU-driven market
liberalization and climate policies will succeed in establishing
market forces that will drive actors towards more climate-friendly
energy production. A special focus is on the role of local
utilities in the electricity sector as opposed to large
transmission net operators or regional net operators. The countries
covered in the contributions include Germany, Denmark, the UK,
Switzerland, and the Netherlands.
