Abstract
If the Nordic energy and transport sectors are to meet
the 2050 energy and climate policy targets, major
systemic changes are necessary. Along with new
technologies, changes are required also in other societal
functions such as business models and consumer habits.
The transition requires cooperation between public and
private actors. This paper discusses the paradigm change
towards 2050 Nordic road transport system based on
renewable energy. More precisely, it proposes an approach
for creation and analysis of prospective value chains up
to the year 2050. The value networks arise from three
alternative, but partly overlapping technology platforms,
namely electricity, biofuels and hydrogen. The approach
outlined in the paper combines elements from the fields
of system level changes (transitions), value chain
analysis and forward looking policy design. It presents a
novel, policy relevant application with a set of
practical tools to support development of implementation
strategies and policy programmes in the fields of energy
and transport.
