The role of regional innovation systems in mission-oriented innovation policy: exploring the problem-solution space in electrification of maritime transport

Markus M. Bugge, Allan Dahl Andersen, Markus Steén · 2021 · European Planning Studies

Summary. This paper examines how regional innovation systems contribute to mission-oriented innovation policy by studying ferry electrification in Western Norway. The research finds that transformative change succeeded because it created new regional economic opportunities while leveraging existing regional resources, actors, and institutions. The mission benefited from low technological uncertainty, multi-level coordination among actors, and strategic modification of established regional structures and regulations.
