Patricia Graf, Heike Jacobsen: Institutional work in the transformation of the German energy sector, Utilities Policy, Volume 68, 2021, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jup.2020.101107 

Der Abstract des Artikels lautet:

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.
