Abstract
The rapid increase of local energy initiatives (LEIs) over the last decade increasingly pressures provincial governments in the Netherlands to include these in renewable energy planning and development. How this is done is the main topic of interest in this triple case study, with as main question: How do provincial governments in the Netherlands take the lead in implementing an adaptive governance approach considering citizen-led wind energy development? Focussing on the enabling role of the province, a framework for accommodative leadership was created. Through researching different provinces this framework was tested and refined. It was found that provinces adopt a different leadership style: facilitative decentralization in Gelderland, deliberative innovation in Flevoland and authoritative reluctance in North- Holland. In conclusion it can be stated that although there is no roadmap to good accommodative leadership, the created framework contributes to an increased understanding of the possible actions taken to improve current-day practices.
