This research explores the roles of actors and governance framings in a low carbon transition, by developing and analysing scenarios or pathways to a low carbon electricity future, as well as potential branching points along these pathways. Pathways under market-led, government-led and civil society-led framings have been analysed (see special issue of Energy Policy), and further research is exploring the changes in technologies, institutions, business strategies and user practices that would be needed to realise these transition pathways, including potential new institutional arrangements for a civil society-led pathway.
