“…There is an ongoing debate in the literature about the best collaboration models and their management in network and ecosystem contexts (see Andersson et al, 2007;Möller & Rajala, 2007;Tsujimoto et al, 2017;Valkokari, 2009;Wilkinson & Young, 2002). Although valuable new research insights have been introduced (see Dhanaraj & Parkhe, 2006;Järvensivu & Moller, 2009;Möller & Rajala, 2007;Valkokari, 2009), conceptual confusion still exists.…”

“…Social cognitive theories have long been used to explore the adoption of renewable energy and sustainable innovation. Various scholars have employed the lenses of sociotechnical transition models (Dijk, Wells, & Kemp, 2016), innovation ecosystems (Tsujimoto, Kajikawa, Tomita, & Matsumoto, 2017), sustainability management (Luederitz et al, 2016), energy cultures (Ford et al, 2017), escalation of commitment (Ross & Staw, 1993), moral norm activation (Schwartz, 1970), valuebelief-norm model (Stern et al, 1999), and moral self-regulation (Bandura, 2007). These approaches have facilitated the examination of the social acceptance of renewable energy and sustainable innovations.…”

In our study, we examined the role of consumers' egoism and social and biospheric altruism in influencing their willingness to adopt renewable energy. Past research has suggested that the social, biospheric, and egoistic values and beliefs of energy consumers influence their cognitive decision‐making mechanisms. However, studies have not compared and contrasted the effects of different altruistic values on specific environmental behaviors. To address this problem, we drew on the theories of value–belief–norm and paradox to propose that social and biospheric altruistic values have diverse effects on renewable energy adoption. We observed that biospheric altruism is positively associated with the adoption of renewable energy and social altruism is negatively associated with the adoption of renewable energy. Contrary to the propositions of the theory of paradox, we observed that egoistic values measured in terms of financial scarcity reduced the paradoxical nature of social and biospheric altruism. In our study, we used partial least squares structural equation modeling to analyze the data. We analyzed 140 responses from the residential energy consumers of New Brunswick, Canada. Our study underscores the claims of value–belief–norm theory. Further, it adds to the theory of paradox. The findings from this study help guide utilities on how to approach different consumers with specific new sustainable and renewable energy products and services. Moreover, the study throws light on how the policy makers should design energy policy‐related messages to specific consumer segments.

“…In this regard, an increasing number of studies discussing the applicability and boundary conditions of the ecosystem concept have been conducted (Oh et al, 2016;Ritala & Almpanopoulou, 2017;Stam, 2015;Tsujimoto et al, 2017). However, the conceptualization of ecosystems in innovation and entrepreneurship research remains a debated issue.…”

“…Third, creating a new and unique foundation for ecosystem research is a lucrative option, already pursued by authors in strategy research (see, e.g., Adner, 2017). For innovation and entrepreneurial ecosystem scholars, the same challenge and opportunity remain in sight, with many scholars discussing the concept and its uniqueness in these fields Stam, 2015;Tsujimoto et al, 2017).…”
