  1. 1. A demand-side perspective on venture capital financing

    Författare :Sarah Glücksman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Venture capital; post-exit development; thin markets; entrepreneurial perspective; demand-side perspective; cross-border investments; information asymmetry;

    Sammanfattning : Entrepreneurial high growth firms are recognized as having a disproportionate impact on economic development and job creation. It is further recognized that many of these firms need access to venture capital if the high-growth potential is to be realized. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Towards a circular home: Exploring opportunities for design to support households in sustainable resource use

    Författare :Sofie Hagejärd; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; design for sustainability; thermal comfort; smart energy systems; social practice theory; circular product design; circular economy; demand-side management;

    Sammanfattning : Our use of natural resources has grown dramatically in recent years, with negative consequences for both the environment and human health. At home, resource use in the form of energy, water, food, and material objects may be related to a wide range of everyday practices as well as changes to, and adaptations of, our home environments.

  3. 3. Participating in Energy Systems through Everyday Designs – Exploring roles for households in a more sustainable energy future

    Författare :Sara Renström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; smart energy; sustainable energy systems; sustainable design; user-centred design; demand-side management; smart home; energy use;

    Sammanfattning : As households we participate in energy systems when, in the course of our everyday energy-reliant activities, we create a demand for energy and when we engage in energy-managing activities such as choosing an energy provider and deciding to support a specific source of energy. In this way, everyday life has an impact on the energy sector, and vice versa. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Exploring the Role of Business Models in Large-Scale Diffusion of Solar Photovoltaics - A study of demand-side solar firms in Sweden

    Författare :Amanda Bankel; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; firm; innovation; sustainability; Sweden; photovoltaic; business model; diffusion; solar; system; policy;

    Sammanfattning : A rapid and large-scale diffusion of renewable energy technologies, like solar photovoltaics (PV), is crucial to slow down climate change. Research on technology diffusion explains that the rate and scale at which a new technology diffuses in society is influenced by the actors, networks, and institutions that make up its innovation system.

  5. 5. Biogas in Swedish transport – a policy-driven systemic transition

    Författare :Tomas Lönnqvist; Stefan Grönkvist; Thomas Sandberg; Mats Eklund; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transport biofuels; Biogas; Forest-derived methane; Policy; Actors; Multilevel perspective; Barriers and incentives; Biogas production potential; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik; Industriell ekonomi och organisation; Industrial Engineering and Management;

    Sammanfattning : The thesis analyzes the conditions for biogas in the Swedish transport sector. Biogas can contribute to the achievement of Sweden’s ambitious targets of decreased emissions of greenhouse gases and an increased share of renewables in the transport sector, a sector that encompasses the major challenges in the phase-out of fossil fuels.
