The sub-project aims to provide a comprehensive systematic comparison of the various transition dynamics depending on different socio-technical constellations. The analysis will be carried out across all research platforms of the TEN.efzn program.

In order to capture the patterns of different transition processes, a key focus will be on analysing the role of organizations and large corporations in particular.

The sub-project analyzes the specific transition dynamics for offshore wind. In close cooperation with the Living Lab 70 GW Offshore Wind (Research platform 1), regional case studies will be carried out focusing on  interactions between organizations, technology and the surrounding region.

For instance,  the questions that will be addressed are how organizations design the implementation process and to what extent the expected social change is also reflected within the organization.

The sub-project analyzes hydrogen and its derivative ammonia as a bridging technology between different transition areas.

One aspect of interest is new roles; another is that sector coupling goes hand in hand with a linking of different institutional logics and thus also significant institutionalization processes.

At the core of the project is a comparative case study on the production, storage and transportation of hydrogen and ammonia.
