dc.description.abstract
In this research, we emphasized the role of entrepreneurs in the adaption of
technological innovations regarding micro Combined Heat and Power (micro-CHP)
to the Germany's energy system. This research is going to make a contribution
in following areas: \- Analyzing the institutional setting and the role of
macro phenomena and the dynamics of the regime in a multi-level perspective
analysis. \- Discussion of the cultural dimension in Germany and its influence
on micro-CHP development. \- Analyzing the current regulatory framework
regarding micro-CHP and its effects on benefits or costs of technology users.
The main research question is: How do the regulatory framework and
institutional setting in combination with German culture influence the
development of entrepreneurial activities regarding micro-CHP? The approach to
answer this question includes mixture of qualitative and quantitative
analysis. For studying the interaction between the institutional setting,
regulations and culture to understand the development of the technological
innovation system of micro-CHP in Germany, one theory and two approaches were
used for analysis: 1) Economic theory of entrepreneurship, 2) Multilevel
perspective analysis to explaining Institutional changes, 3) Value proposition
concept for analyzing the regulatory framework.

In diese Forschung, betonte wir die Rolle von der Entrepreneure in die
technologischen Innovationen in Bezug auf die Entwicklung von Mikro-Kraft-
Wärme-Kopplung (Mikro-KWK) in deutsche Energiesystem. Diese Forschung würde
folgende Themen abdecken: \- Analyse der institutionellen Rahmenbedingungen
und die Rolle der Makroebene Phänomena und die Dynamik des System in einem
Multi ebene Perspektive. \- Diskussion die kulturelle Dimensionen in
Deutschland und ihre Einfluß auf die Mikro-KWK Entwicklung basiert auf
"Economic theory of entrepreneurship" von Mark Casson. \- Die Einflüsse
verschiedener Gesetze (EE‐G, KWK‐G, Energiesteuergesetz, Stromsteuergesetz,
EE‐Wärme‐G, Mini‐KWK Förderrichtlinie, KfW‐Förderprogramm) und Energie Price
wurde auf die Entwicklung des Mikro Kraft‐Wärme‐Kupplung in Deutschland aus
wirtschaftliche Perspektive basiert auf Kapitalwert Analyse diskutiert. Unsere
Analyse zeigt dass die Förderungsprogramm der Lände zusammen mit KWK-G und
EEG, die Wichtigste Förderungen in Regulierungsrahmen sind. Außerdem, die
Liberalisierung des Energiemarkts in Deutschland hat Positive Wirkung.
