Abstract

Purpose: Research to improve co-creation in engineering and technopreneurial orientation is required to support the energy transition toward sustainability. This challenge is aimed at power system expert engineers, whose central role in the electricity sector is becoming increasingly complicated by the possibility of stranded assets, intermittency paradigms, and new patterns of energy flow. This research explains the importance of the co-creation process as a mediator to enable the utilization of the technopreneurial orientation among expert engineers in supporting the sustainability of the electricity sector. Design/methodology/approach: The survey method was carried out to collect data from expert power system engineers with more than ten years of experience in the national electricity sector. The quantitative method with structural equation modeling analysis and a partial least square approach was used in this research. Findings: Empowering expert engineers in a technopreneurial orientation can encourage them to co-create by prioritizing dialogue that allows for accessibility and transparency when taking risks, which is an important aspect that boosts the co-creation effect in the energy transition to sustainability. The strong behavior of experts in utilizing technopreneurial orientation and the co-creation process has been demonstrated to be capability of adopting the three aspects contained in the energy trilemma index, energy security, energy equity, and environmental sustainability, which are modified to reflect a strong tendency to achieve sustainability in the electricity sector. Research limitations/implications: Although this study's respondents are limited to expert engineers in the electricity sector, the findings have implications for the management of experts in other strategic and large-scale sectors. The limited number of respondents to expert engineers with more than ten years of work experience makes millennials excluded. Originality/value: The measurement indicator becomes novelty in this study. Sustainability was adopted and modified from the energy trilemma index. Technopreneurial orientation adopted from Lumpkin & Dess (1996) was modified by the addition of technological expertise. Then, co-creation as a mediator is taken from the DART of value co-creation.

管理能源转型的可持续性专家工程师:共同创造的技术创业导向
目的:需要研究改善工程和技术创业方向的共同创造,以支持向可持续性的能源转型。这一挑战是针对电力系统专家工程师的,他们在电力部门的核心角色正变得越来越复杂,因为资产搁浅的可能性、间歇性范例和新的能量流模式。本研究解释了共同创造过程作为中介的重要性,使专家工程师能够利用技术创业导向来支持电力部门的可持续性。设计/方法/途径:采用调查方法,从在国家电力部门有十年以上经验的电力系统专家工程师那里收集数据。本研究采用结构方程建模分析和偏最小二乘方法进行定量分析。研究结果:以技术创业为导向赋予专业工程师权力,可以通过优先考虑风险时的可及性和透明度的对话来鼓励他们共同创造,这是促进能源向可持续性转型的共同创造效应的一个重要方面。专家在利用技术创业导向和共同创造过程方面的强烈行为已被证明能够采用能源三难指数中包含的三个方面,即能源安全,能源公平和环境可持续性,这些方面经过修改以反映电力部门实现可持续性的强烈倾向。研究局限/启示:虽然本研究的受访者仅限于电力部门的专家工程师,但研究结果对其他战略和大规模部门的专家管理具有启示意义。拥有10年以上工作经验的专业工程师的受访者数量有限,这使得千禧一代被排除在外。原创性/价值:测量指标在本研究中变为新颖性。可持续性采用了能源三难指标,并对其进行了修正。Lumpkin & Dess(1996)采用的技术企业家导向被技术专长的加入所修正。然后,从价值共同创造的DART中提取共同创造作为中介。
