A Strategic Niche Management approach for shaping bio-based economy in Europe

Abstract

The goal of this paper is to investigate the transition towards a bio-based economy as part of a broader sustainable transition in Europe. To analyse the challenges and opportunities associated with the bio-based economy, we applied the Strategic Niche Management approach to investigate the drivers that boost the emergence of the bio-based economy, the factors hindering it, as well as institutional changes which are at the base of the socio-technological transition. Although considered as just one piece of the sustainability puzzle, the bio-based economy behaves as a socio-technical system on its own, providing valuable hints on systemic transitions.

Proposing a Cultural Evolutionary Perspective for Dedicated Innovation Systems: Bioeconomy Transitions and Beyond

“…For example, Kuckertz et al (2020) investigate the role of entrepreneurship in the transition towards a sustainable bioeconomy by focusing on its contribution at multiple levels in the bioeconomy. Tani (2018) analyzes the transition towards a bio-based economy through the lens of strategic niche management. Schiller et al (2020) use the MLP to analyze the transformation of Nicaragua's agri-food system with a specific focus on the interactions between niche and regime.…”

Estado Da Arte Das Pesquisas Sobre Barreiras À Difusão De Energias Renováveis: Uma Revisão Da Literatura

“…Em geral, ficam muito tempo na fase de pesquisa e desenvolvimento (P&D), demorando muito tempo para começar a difusão em larga escala. Essa informação é verdadeira quando se trata de sistemas de energias renováveis, como a energia de biomassa (Elmustapha et al, 2018;Tani, 2018), energia geotérmica (Dienna Jr., 2016), energia solar (Elmustapha et al, 2018), energia eólica onshore (Bauknecht et al, 2013) e a energia eólica offshore (Dedecca et al, 2016).…”
