Renewable energy deployment policy: A transition management perspective

Author

Listed:
  • Shum, Kwok L.

Abstract

This paper analyzes major categories of renewable policy instruments in light of the framework of Transition Management. We leveraged the concept of levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) to unify the discussion of these instruments by elaborating the differing effects such instruments have on the formation of the socio-technological regime.
