Grounded Theory in Sustainable Energy Initiatives
Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to raise awareness by introducing ideas that are generally based on transition studies and grounded theory (GT). In addition, to support us to understand phenomena such as green building investment decision making, changing energy saving behavior, and diffusion of smart grids and energy systems, these ideas also help developing interventions to reduce climate change through renewable energy technologies. Since energy systems are important determinants of social structure and complexity, and also because little attention has been paid to the social dynamics of energy transition in a social setting, the use of GT as a qualitative research methodology suitable to study this social phenomena can be helpful in this regard.
