abstract = {The paper aims to improve the understanding about the role of expectations and key innovation processes,  such  as  legitimation  and  guidance,  in  the  upscaling  of  low-carbon  innovations.  We analyze roadmaps developed for floating offshore wind energy to investigate how actors prepare for  system  growth.  We  focus  on  how  roadmaps  contribute  to  the  formation  and  sharing  of expectations  through  their  influence  on  system  acceptability  (legitimacy) and  attractiveness (guidance),  enabling  access  to  crucial  resources.  The  analysis  reveals  that  institutional  and technological context affect guidance, namely a higher external openness as technology matures and governments are involved. An actors’ survey finds  that  overpromising  reduces  roadmaps impact on expectations. Analyses of media coverage and Internet searches show that roadmaps affect public perceptions indirectly, through the promotion of experiments. Implications include new  directions  for  conceptualizing  legitimacy,  guidance  and  expectations  in  technological innovation  systems,  as  well  as  recommendations  for  managing  key  processes  in  systems’ upscaling.},

abstract = {Energy use for human plans and programs have contributed to global climate change and related crises, which in turn are impacting human relation to energy. As such, not only are new methods of energy generation, distribution and storage emerging; but also bringing along with them new modes of technical innovation and social organization.



While some of these technologies prioritize quickly securing the energy supply for humans when faced with environmental adversity (such as fracking, nuclear power…), others focus on environmental regeneration and limiting human impact on nature (such as renewable energies). Furthermore, these developments expand and warp ways in which energy is socially, politically, economically organized. Struggles about prioritization, expertise and boundaries appear which make energy technology controversial.



We want to better understand the shape of this controversy. In order to do so, we investigate the landscape of energy technology on a public open source medium. Wikipedia provides us good starting point to dive into the different themes, conflicts and shifts related to energy technology. The results of our investigation and mapping compel us to pursue the debates taking place in this realm further. Through investigating Scopus, we delve deeper into the controversy and uncover the debates in the scientific community surrounding the currently most prominent field in energy technology: renewable energy. Within the field, the controversy surrounding the methods of distribution, generation and storage of energy proved interesting, as well as the questions of efficiency and reliability which were linked externally to ‘clean’ nuclear energy.},

abstract = {This research studies the role of the formation of collective visions and plans in accelerating the upscaling of emerging low-carbon innovations. We analyze the national roadmaps that have been developed for offshore wind energy in deepwaters, i.e., more than 50 meters deep where there is high potential of resources but whose technology is still immature. The analysis focus on how actors create legitimacy and guidance to prepare the growth of the system. The results points to different types of guidance depending on the technological and institutional context, particularly a higher external openness with technology maturity and government involvement. A survey of actors’ opinion complements the roadmaps analysis revealing the tendency for overinflatingexpectations. In addition, it suggestsroadmaps have a positive but limited impact on technology development. Policy implications include recommendations for managing the process of formation of visions and legitimacy of new technologies entering into upscaling.},
