Policies forEnergy TechnologyInnovation Systems ArnulfGrubler IIASA & Yale University
Energy Technology Innovation Energy technology innovation isthe embodied result of institutionalized research, development and deployment effortsdriven by collective learning processesinvolving both suppliers and users of technologiesoperating in specific contextsof adoption environments and incentive structures. GEA Chapter 24
Chapter 24 Highlights & News New concepts:-- Systems perspective (ETIS)-- “granularity” of technologies/projects New quantifications:- ETIS resource mobilization- R&D in BRIMCS- knowledge depreciation- impacts of policy misalignments and volatility- innovation portfolio biases Generic criteria for policy design:-- Knowledge: feedbacks (experimentation), spillovers (globalization)-- Policy: stability, alignment-- Targets: systems, and portfolio based Literature review + research + 20 GEA case studies
World – Primary Energy Transitionschangeover time Δts: 80-130 years Begin of energy policy focus:Δt’s >2000 yrs Δt -130 yrs Δt -80 yrs Δt +130 yrs Δt +90 yrs
Cumulative Experience /Learning Favors “granular” Technologies learning Draft, table will be replaced by graphic in final presentation
Knowledge Depreciation Rates (% per year)empirical studies reviewed GEA KM24 (2012) andmodeled R&D deprecation in US manufacturing (Hall, 2007)
ETIS Actors & Institutions Institutional design for technology innovationremains amiss of importance of BRICs in energy R&D and “minimizes” global knowledge spillovers National Energy R&D(public+private) International Clean-tech collaborations(# of IEA implementation agreements) OECD vsBRICs
