“…At the beginning of the research there was interest by the researcher to determine if the case under investigation could yield hypotheses or theories that may be externally applicable, which would need to be included within the limited research purview and subsequent results. The rationale for this was based on the inherent economic and policy influence that Russia had within the contiguous Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) at the time [38], the increasing power grid integration with Europe [16], and subsequent crossborder influence on policy formation and implementation. However, after a deeper review of scholarly, case study research, the researcher determined that the "case study should be guided by the research question" [39] and that the MRQ could be answered more profoundly by focusing on the internal validity of the research to be undertaken.…”

“…However, there were external motivations as well, which included economic and technical interests. This was exemplified by Voropai and Kucherov, [16], who stated: "The goal of Russia and its Unified Power System (UPS) is to become an equal partner and major player in the European electricity market". This was indicative of European and (former Soviet) Russian interests in integrative energy cooperation [17,18].…”

“…This was indicative of European and (former Soviet) Russian interests in integrative energy cooperation [17,18]. Therefore, inasmuch as Europe followed the lead of Britain to liberalise electricity markets [19], and Russia had an interest in participating in the liberalised EU wholesale power market via transmission interconnections [16], Russian policy makers were also reacting to external political and business interests. Similar external incentives for Russian wholesale power market liberalisation were found in Russian economic and technical linkages with the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) and Asia [20,21].…”

This paper is an inductive, qualitative case study concerning the development of new policy learning theory derived from Russian power sector liberalisation policy reform that was conceived and implemented from the year 2001 to 2007. The research extends the policy learning theory work of James and Jorgensen and others by more holistically explaining how policy knowledge, through policy learning, affects policy formulation, change, the direction of that change, and outcomes. To provide an investigative platform for this, the study aimed to capture the perceptions related to Russian policy learning and adaptation from three primary policy community groups which included Russian energy researchers, international industrial informants, and economists with a high degree of involvement in power sector liberalisation policy development. In the course of the research, policy learning causal ‘moments’ were identified in the form of synchronic and diachronic interrelated frameworks that indicated causal mechanisms and causal paths. The empirically derived research results were from conceptual, planning, and implementation processes used to diversify Russian policy learning, primarily from relevant, concurrent, international policy experiences and outcomes in Britain, and to a lesser extent, the USA.
