- Bridging Regional Divides in Decarbonization: Firm Strategies, Policy Tensions, and Structural Trade-offs in Portugal [Resumo]Publication . Vale, Mário; Alves, Tiago; Fontes, Margarida; Mamede, Ricardo; Bento, NunoABSTRACT: The transition to a low-carbon economy is shaped by structural tensions and trade-offs that impact firms, regions, and policymakers. A central challenge is balancing regional equity, industrial specialization, and technological innovation in decarbonization policies (Markard & Rosenbloom, 2022). This study critically examines these tensions by analysing firm-level decarbonization strategies within the Portugal 2020 (PT2020) program, revealing how economic structures shape sustainability transitions and the effectiveness of policy interventions.
- Intersectoral knowledge spaces of emerging technologies and innovation opportunities for established industrial sectorsPublication . Sousa, Cristina; Fontes, Margarida; Barbosa, Juliana PachecoABSTRACT: The paper investigates how the emergence of new sustainable technologies can induce innovation and change in the industrial sectors that contribute competences and resources to their development. For this, it develops and tests a framework to address knowledge recombination processes at the intersection of diverse sectoral knowledge bases. The paper maps the intersectoral knowledge space formed as part of the emergence of a new sustainable technology, marine renewable energy, and proposes that the position of a sector in that space – in terms of variety of connections and (un)relatedness between the connected sectors – is associated with differentiated opportunities for innovation and engagement in diversification into a new business. This research contributes to the literature on the industrial transformative effects of new technologies by uncovering some of the processes through which intersectoral knowledge relationships generate opportunities for knowledge (re)combination and innovation in firms from existing sectors. The results can inform policies that aim to combine sustainability and industrial development goals.
- Systemic complementarities and transformative change: A tentative methodology to examine bidirectionality effects across connected systems [Resumo]Publication . Padua, Muriela; Fontes, MargaridaABSTRACT: Achieving energy-sustainable goals involves large-scale production and social changes necessary to fulfil societal functions (Geels, 2004; Markard, 2011). These long-term goals imply a transformative change requiring multiple transitions involving multiple socio-technical systems and their interplay (Raven and Verbong, 2007; Geels, 2007; Papachristos, 2013; Rosenbloom, 2020). To fully address system change, it is necessary to consider that changes in one system affect the other (Geels, 2007; Papachristos, 2013), i.e., the presence of bidirectionality in system interactions. However, bidirectionality has only recently started being tackled and remains under-conceptualized.
