Katrine Maria Lumbye

Electricity firms have become a crucial vehicle for the global transition to renewable energy in the combat against climate change. At the same time, these very firms, as MNEs, are also undergoing processes of internationalization. Together, these developments are drastically reshaping the electricity industry, reshuffling business and re-defining the role of the state. Yet, when it comes to European renewable electricity firms, the parallel and interconnected processes of internationalization and the transition to renewable energy remain underexplored. To help close this gap, this dissertation explores the concurrent phenomena of MNE internationalization and transition to renewable energy, and their interrelations through a qualitative, in-depth inquiry.
