Abstract
This thesis examines the innovation system of the Danish photovoltaic sector, motivated by growing environmental concerns and the policy focus on renewable energy. Its aim is to map and understand the sector’s key actors, knowledge flows, collaboration patterns, and policy environment, and to identify core issues related to innovation and knowledge development in the solar cell market. The analysis is grounded in innovation system theory and incorporates perspectives from science, technology, and innovation policy. Empirically, the work draws on qualitative interviews with stakeholders from public business authorities, research institutions, industry firms, and technological institutes, supported by an introductory review of photovoltaics. The thesis seeks to provide an integrated overview of how the sector’s organization and framework conditions shape the development and diffusion of solar technologies in Denmark. As this excerpt covers the introductory sections, no specific findings are presented here; results are discussed in later chapters.
Dette speciale undersøger innovationssystemet i den danske fotovoltaiske sektor med udgangspunkt i voksende miljømæssige bekymringer og den politiske interesse for vedvarende energi. Formålet er at kortlægge og forstå sektorens centrale aktører, videnstrømme, samarbejdsrelationer og politiske rammer, samt at identificere væsentlige problemstillinger relateret til innovation og vidensudvikling på markedet for solceller. Analysen er forankret i innovationssystemteori og inddrager perspektiver fra science-, teknologi- og innovationspolitik. Empirisk baseres arbejdet blandt andet på kvalitative interviews med aktører fra offentlige erhvervsmyndigheder, forskningsmiljøer, industrivirksomheder og teknologiske institutter, suppleret af faglig introduktion til fotovoltaik. Specialet søger at give et helhedsorienteret overblik over, hvordan sektorens organisation og rammebetingelser påvirker udvikling og udbredelse af solcelleteknologi i Danmark. Da dette uddrag dækker de indledende dele af rapporten, præsenteres ingen konkrete resultater her; de behandles i de efterfølgende kapitler.
