1. Policy induced technological change : Productivity and innovation effects in biomass-using industry and energy generation
Sammanfattning : The main objective of this thesis is to investigate the impact of public environmental policy on technological change in the biomass-using industry and energy generation. The thesis contains an introductory part followed by the empirical investigation which is divided into two self-contained articles. LÄS MER
2. Measurement systems and process orientation with focus on the order process
Sammanfattning : The inability of organisations to develop successfully and their lack of a holistic view and of relevant quantitative facts are factors that played a major role in my choice of a research area for this and my licentiate thesis (Ljungberg, 1994). These two theses together represent the work conducted for the PhD degree. LÄS MER
3. Impacts of Climate Policy and Natural Disasters: Evidence from China
Sammanfattning : The last decade has seen heightened interest in carbon pricing to reduce greenhouse gas emissions responsible for anthropogenic climate change. Over the past decade, China–responsible for over a quarter of global carbon emissions–has aimed to reduce its emissions through an ambitious Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) which charges certain firms for the greenhouse gases they emit.

4. Dating for innovation : recognizing and creating opportunities in fluid environments through collaborative interorganizational relationships
Sammanfattning : Both practice and theory present good reason to believe that collaborative interorganizational relationships have become particularly important for innovation and new product development in industries characterized by rapid technological change and dynamic competition. Even though collaboration across organizational boundaries represents an important change in the way companies innovate and develop new products (services and processes), it appears as if the process and practical steps of such arrangements are scantly explored.

5. Energy Policy Instruments Perspectives on their Choice, Combination and Evaluation
Sammanfattning : Abstract The thesis aims at providing a better understanding of public policy instruments used in policy-making within the energy sector, particularly regarding their role in the change towards an increased use of renewable energy sources for generation of electricity. The research was guided by an underlying assumption that a markedly higher proportion of the energy generated from renewable sources can be considerably enhanced by use of policy instruments that support the development and the market creation of new, renewable energy technologies.
