Utilities Policy ( IF 3.8 ) Pub Date : 2020-09-16 , DOI: 10.1016/j.jup.2020.101107 Patricia Graf , Heike Jacobsen
Two European and German policies – one transitioning to sustainable energy and the other enhancing competition – strained the German electricity sector's organizational structures, which had been designed for network stability and a secure supply. Digital technologies and the new business models were important factors in these changes. Based on qualitative interviews, we analyze how changes caused by liberalization and energy-transition policies are related to the internal organizational changes at publicly owned energy providers. While some companies legitimate new forms of work organization and employment, thereby disrupting old institutions, others block internal change with reference to the external institutional framework.

德国能源部门转型中的机构工作
欧洲和德国的两项政策(一项过渡到可持续能源,另一项加强竞争)使德国电力部门的组织结构紧张,该组织结构旨在实现网络稳定性和安全供应。数字技术和新的商业模式是这些变化的重要因素。在定性访谈的基础上,我们分析了由自由化和能源转换政策引起的变化与公有能源供应商的内部组织变化之间的关系。有些公司合法化新的工作组织和雇佣形式,从而破坏了旧的机构,而另一些公司则参照外部机构框架来阻止内部变革。
