This book investigates and evaluates the opportunities and
limitations of network governance in building local capacity for
energy infrastructure governance. Presenting a comparative analysis
of three city cases from across Europe- Birmingham, Frankfurt and
Budapest- this book demonstrates how local factors shape the
prospect of network governance to support low-carbon energy
transitions. It maps out existing governance networks, highlighting
the actors involved and their interactions with one another, and
also discusses the role and embeddedness of networks in the urban
governance of low-carbon energy. Drawing on case study evidence,
Nochta develops a comparative analysis which discusses the
intricate connections between network characteristics, context and
impact. It highlights that organisational fragmentation; the
complexity of the low-carbon energy problem and historical
developments all influence network characteristics in terms of
degree of integration and vertical (hierarchical) power
relationships among network actors. Overall, the book concludes
that understanding such links between context and networks is
crucial when designing and implementing new governance models aimed
at facilitating and governing low-carbon urban development.
Low-Carbon Energy Transitions in European Cities will be of great
interest to scholars of energy policy, urban governance and
sustainability transitions.
