The global trend towards decarbonization and the demand for energy security have put hydrogen into spotlight of industry, politics, societies. Numerous governments worldwide are adopting policies strategies to facilitate transition hydrogen-based economies. To assess determinants such transition, this study presents a comparative analysis technological innovation systems (TISs) technologies in Germany South Korea, both recognized as frontrunners advancing implementing solutions. By providing multidimensional assessment pathways economy, our introduces two novel crucial elements TIS analysis: (i) We integrate concept ‘quality infrastructure’ given relevance safety quality assurance technology adoption social acceptance, (ii) we emphasize perspective within TIS. end, conducted 24 semi-structured expert interviews, applying qualitative open coding analyze data. Our results indicate that TISs countries undergone significant developments across various dimensions. However, several barriers still hinder further realization economy. Based on findings, propose policy implications can informed decisions successful transition.

This contribution delves into the transformative effects of Russian–Ukrainian war on discourse surrounding German hydrogen. Employing structural topical modeling (STM) a vast dataset 2192 newspaper articles spanning from 2019 to 2022, it aims uncover thematic shifts attributed Russian invasion Ukraine. The onset in February 2022 triggered significant pivot discourse, shifting sustainability and climate-change mitigation securing energy supplies through new partnerships, particularly response Russia’s unreliability. Germany started exploring alternative trading partners like Canada Australia, emphasizing green hydrogen development. study illustrates how external shocks can expedite uptake technologies. adoption “H2 readiness” concept for LNG terminals contributes successful implementation In summary, profoundly impacted focus supply security, underscoring interconnectedness security Germany’s policy.

In advanced transition processes sector coupling becomes key to reach net zero objectives. The literature on multi-system interactions addresses the of different systems by analysing how technologies, institutions, and actors connect. Our contribution zooms in better understanding concrete activities characteristics who work integrate systems. It is crucial understand realise integration sectors as represents a major bottleneck accelerating processes. To identify their activities, we build recently established concept work, which adapts institutional framework for use analysis link it 'system entanglers'. System entanglers are connect Empirically, apply our conceptual three qualitative case studies hydrogen-based projects within mobility, heating, industry Germany. We find that system cross-sectoral competencies learning, well fostering between-system links, further discuss sectoral context, constellation projects, self-perception respective matter.

Abstract Technological change is often seen as part of the solution to problems global sustainability. A wide-ranging literature on how path dependent—often fossil fuel-based—socio-technical configurations can be overcome by more sustainable has emerged over last two decades. One potential transition pathway transform electricity, heat and mobility systems well industrial production use hydrogen. In recent years, hydrogen received increasing attention decarbonisation strategies in many countries international organisations such International Energy Agency or Renewable Agency. Also Germany it become a central component climate policy some actors almost kind panacea, where expected decarbonise wide range sectors. Policy makers have ambition for leader development therefore help contribute what Grubler called ‘grand patterns technological change’. The aim this paper analyse whether relevant share expectations pathways based hydrogen, which would foster diffusion. Our empirical analysis shows that there are multiple contested pathways, both terms produced applications sectors used. This causes uncertainty slows down developments Germany. We an emerging politics also critically engage with Grubler’s patterns’ argument. Results support idea concept socio-technical allows expose tensions between competing values interests.
