This research focusses on local civic sustainable place-based developments. Dimensions addressed in this research are; how energy cooperatives are organized, how they collaborate with (governmental) actors, what the geographical influence on cooperatives is and how they take the lead to reach desired goals. Cooperatives in the Dutch provinces Drenthe, Friesland and Groningen were analyzed. One conclusion is that rural initiatives are more successful than urban initiatives. date: 2019 date_type: published thesis_type: master degree_programme: EIP tutors_name: Horlings, Prof Dr Ing L.G. keywords_local: Energy transition keywords_local: Leadership keywords_local: Citizen initiatives keywords_local: Sustainable place-based developments keywords_local: Climate change language_iso: en titleorder: Who takes the lead in battling climate change?
