“…In the case of energy innovation, matters are further complicated by the fact that it is unclear how clean innovation or even energy innovation are defined (Gallagher et al 2011). A number of studies focus specifically on the energy supply sector (Salies 2010;Sterlacchini, 2012;Costa-Campi et al 2014) but energy-saving R&D and innovation are pervasive.…”

ForewordSustainable energy transitions involve the shift of resources between competing industrial sectors and political constituencies. Stakeholders in this process have varying degrees of political and economic power, and understanding how political economic factors influence clean energy transitions is crucial to effective policy formulation and facilitating transitions to sustainable energy systems. In partnership with the Joint Institute for Strategic Energy Analysis (JISEA), UNU-WIDER gathered together a substantial group of experts from around the world-from both developed and developing countries-to launch a multidisciplinary research project seeking to contribute to our enhanced understanding of these factors. The project sought to facilitate an energy transition that will generate very large environmental and economic benefits, particularly over the long run. The beneficiaries of clean energy transitions are highly diffuse and include future generations not yet born. This book is the distilled essence of the cross-cutting academic project. I express my sincere and professional appreciation to the large group of expert authors for their dedication to the project, and to my fellow editors in helping bring together the book for readers to enjoy and absorb along with the findings and policy implications.

Abstract:The international diffusion of environmental innovations is getting increasing attention as an opportunity to improve competitiveness. Especially in the energy sector, countries use policy support to this end. A recent goal in this context is the formation of "lead markets", which represents the idea that countries can build up first-mover advantages that will increase their competitiveness. Taking the lead in international diffusion of a particular innovation benefits a country's industry through creating increasing returns of technological development and stimulating exports to expanding international markets. Interaction between national and international forces affecting renewable energy innovation and its diffusion has received fairly little attention so far. Here, we investigate the formation of lead markets for wind power technologies in China, Germany and the USA to see whether policy support of renewable energy innovation is capable of improving competitiveness. An extension of the current lead market framework is developed to include supply side factors and technology policy issues. The comparative analysis of lead market potential for wind power indicates a high level of internationalization of the industry with countries OPEN ACCESSEnergies 2014, 7 8237 holding lead positions in specific parts the supply chain. Competitive advantages were built upon policy support but tended to shift among countries.

Governments can play a crucial role creating initial markets; in doing this, governments can encourage reductions in costs, improvements in quality and functionality, and overall a better definition of the product for the customer (K.

Innovation and technology management in wind energy industry is driven by policies and incentives due to their inherent characteristics such as high upfront costs, lack of level playing field but distinct advantages from energy security, environmental and social considerations. This paper makes an analysis of innovation and technology management in wind power industry, focusing on value chain and the interaction of technology and markets for contributing to recommendations on technology policy and management. This paper proposes a framework for analyzing the initial stage of diffusion of wind power systems, combining the use of various approaches, considering wind power system as a complex technology. The approach to the business system is used as an analytical framework, focusing on efficiency, effectiveness and criteria for development.
