We develop a novel approach to analysing decarbonisation strategies by linking global resource inventories with demographic systems. Our 'mine-town systems' establishes an empirical basis for examining the spatial extent of transition and effects changing energy The research highlights urgent need targeted macro-level planning as markets see decline in thermal coal ramp up other mining commodities. findings suggest that ramping metals (ETM) could be more disruptive systems than down coal. data shows asymmetry distribution risks: mine-town within United States are most sensitive phase-out, while Australia Canada ETM phase-in.

Path development and path creation are prevalent concepts in efforts to understand regional economic change innovation. A recent focus has been on 'green' development: industrial associated with environmentally beneficial products services.

In this article we use concept just transition explore ways that (green) could be more attuned concerns for human environmental well-being as opposed growth innovation goals themselves.

The European Union's Clean Energy Package (CEP) plans to transform 'passive consumers' into 'active citizens' support the transition a carbon-neutral energy system by 2050. By stimulating growth of renewable communities, CEP works towards redefinition as an economic commodity common good. In this paper, we approach implementation through notion polycentricity. Building on previous literature, identified seven variables for effective polycentric governance: equity and co-benefits; inclusivity local involvement; information, demonstration innovation; ownership accountability; organizational multiplicity; experimentation flexibility; clear goals set enforced higher-level authority. To compare variety institutional configurations, analyze Norway, Netherlands, Germany. Our findings indicate that, in general, some degree polycentricity appears be beneficial transition. This is foundation building thus emphasis rightly placed there could expanded. Secondly, issues accountability stand out key enablers communities additional goods that they bring system.

Few sectors in the global economy need deep decarbonization as much heavy industry, which is currently largest and fastest growing source of carbon emissions. Based on an original dataset 111 expert interviews 52 site visits, this paper asks: what sociotechnical pathways, capabilities, regional innovation systems are emerging to support industrial decarbonization? It combines applies insights from evolutionary economic geography transitions studies, such capabilities learning, well spatial frameworks challenge-oriented (CoRIS) green restructuring. utilizes these collective concepts CoRIS explore organizational technological, individual, level dimensions efforts ongoing across Great Britain. We find that within net-zero clusters, technological proximities being effectively leveraged, especially through new forms networking, collaboration, partnerships. provides basis for greater reflection perennial issues, both related incumbency innovation, addition spotlighting emergent issues light versus restructuring incremental transformative change.

Regional energy transitions are largely understood as technology-driven processes. We argue that social innovation (SI) is important and scrutinizing it calls for an agency perspective. Analysing two examples of SI in Austrian non-core regions, we show how resources, relations reflexivity enabled to promote consequently sustain transition. find produces new regional resources capacities, provides directionality transformative change, herewith aids the consolidation transition pathways. Hence, conclude key variables sustainability change deserve more scholarly attention.
