Resumo: |
This work investigates how network actors deal with tensions inherent in a transition to a low-carbon electricity generation matrix. Different actors, such as representatives of various local government organizations, electricity concessionaires, power generation companies (thermal, wind and solar), equipment and technology suppliers, face multiple tensions, related, for example, to short-term and long term, perspective of stability versus change and individual versus collective agenda. In this sense, this thesis argues that in order to promote the transition from the low-carbon electricity matrix, it is necessary for social actors to build collaborative networks that allow them to deal with these tensions. For that, a qualitative research with abductive focus and applied in the electric sector of Ceara. The state of Ceara represents an interesting and successful example of a transition to a low-carbon energy matrix that faced multiple stresses. The empirical field of research shows how a collaborative business network has emerged to become a mechanism capable of dealing with emerging tensions through collective action and social learning, arising from common goals and building trust. In this way, a network-based collaborative structure is presented as a way to improve the collective's capacity to deal with the tensions that emerge in the transition process to a low-carbon electric energy matrix. It is argued that, although tensions are inherent in sustainability, collaborative business networks can develop to minimize them. The study contributes to the transition literature in the sense of recognizing tensions in its path and uses the theory of networks and social learning to deal with the existing tensions in the transition process to a low-carbon electrical energy matrix. |
