- 22. Climate-KIC Let´s start by understanding and describing the incumbent system or regime
- 24. Climate-KIC System is not about actors, It is about their relations and how they are materialised, Institutionalised and structured in a dynamic complex of multiple dimensions

- 32. Climate-KIC Many different regimes, usually interconnected, coexist in the same region
- 33. Climate-KIC Socio-technical system Socio-technical regimes are multi-dimensional. Depending on the sector the number and type of dimension can vary.
- 34. Climate-KIC Same regime becomes different in different regions. Due to local resources and societal interdependencies the mainstream solution is different
- 36. Climate-KIC How about the other two levels, niches and landscape in socio-technical systems?
- 39. Climate-KIC Landscape: drivers for change Regime: Barriers for radical change Niches: Alternatives for the change
- 40. Climate-KIC … But remember, we are in a rush and need radical innovation and transformation and we need it now… How does transition come about?
- 42. Climate-KIC Transition occurs when the incumbent regime is transformed or replaced.
- 43. Climate-KIC In the regime can arise an awareness about the need of change, converging visions of where to go, both in social, political and cognitive dimensions.
- 44. Climate-KIC We have niches where a lo lot of experiments are taking place and struggle to break into the regime.
- 45. Climate-KIC But unless regime falls apart being disrupted, a window of opportunity won´t be opened for disruptive innovation. Likewise if niches are not developed, won´t be able of taking advantage of the window
- 46. Climate-KIC Changes in landscape become pressure for the regime If we are thinking of radical innovation we will need strong, rapid and disruptive pressure.
- 47. Climate-KIC Transitions need: 1.Pressure from the landscape 2.Regime openness for change (instability) 3.Niche innovations
- 48. Climate-KIC Different transition pathways according to the nature and timing of aforementioned conditions Pressure: doesn´t exist, moderate, strong and rapid Pressure: Reinforces or disrupts the regime Niches: Developed or not Pressure: Symbiotic or competitive with regime
- 49. Climate-KIC TRANSITION PATHWAYS (Geels and Schot, 2007) P0 Reproductive process No external landscape pressure, the incumbent regime is stable and reproduces itself, even if there are developed niches - no transition occurs. P1 Transformation/ reorientation pathway Moderate landscape pressure, niches not developed. The incumbent regime actors re-orientate and modify the regime in response. DUTCH HYGIENIC TRANSITION CESSPOOL TO SEWERS P2 De-alignment and re-alignment pathway Strong, rapid landscape pressure, undeveloped niches. The incumbent regime disintegrates, space for multiple innovations, eventually one becomes dominant and forms a new regime. AMERICAN HORSE TO AUTOMOBILE P3 Technological substitution Strong, disruptive landscape pressure on stable regime, niche novelties developed. The niche takes advantage of a window of opportunity to push away the incumbent regime. BRITISH SAIL TO STEAMSHIPS P4 Reconfiguration pathway Symbiotic/sequence of innovations developed in niches are adopted by the incumbent regime to solve its problems. New regime grows out of the incumbent. AMERICAN FACTORIES TO MASS PRODUCTION
- 51. Climate-KIC WHAT: Analytical tool for transitions, that distinghuishes between 3 levels with different meanings. 1. Exogenous landscape: drivers 2. Incumbent regime: barriers 3. Niches: alternatives
- 52. Climate-KIC HOW: When landscape preassures and make regime instable, an opportunity window is opened for the niches and transition is on the way. Different pathways on depending on the change in landscape and relations between levels
- 53. Climate-KIC WHY: not only market prices, subsidies or technology drive innovation. Identifying barriers and drivers in a broader societal perspective WHEN: At the start and/or during an innovation project or programme for a low carbon society. WHO: Project /Programme leaders Policy makers, Analysts/researchers.
