Abstract:
The necessity for system innovation is well acknowledged, but inducing system
change proves to be very difficult. Three approaches have been developed for
analysing and supporting radical innovations: Socrobust, Create Acceptance and
Strategic Niche Management. This paper gives an overview of these complementary
approaches and their theoretical background. The paper also identifies several
potential contributions for social scientists to contribute to energy research and the
implementation of more sustainable alternatives.
