Project description

The project researches presuppositioned of success for renewable energies in the European electricity market. Different types of regulation has been compared with the green electricity policy in Germany, the Netherlands, and Poland within the project. Existent other studies concerning renewable energies focused on their ecological necessity, economic advantages, and technical feasibility. However, there was still a lack of international comparative political science study about restrictions and utilisation of renewable energies. Analysing the wide spectrum of economical, political, technical, cognitive and geographical hurdles, the project and the involved researchers wanted to discuss the space for political intervention. This work aimed first of all at evaluating and developing strategies for the substitution of fossil energies through renewable energies and secondly at developing theoretical generalizations of energy politics based on the results of the research project.
