ロシアのウクライナ侵攻によるエネルギー危機を、社会的イノベーションの契機として再評価。リトアニア、ラトビア、エストニア、ポーランドの比較分析に基づき、分散型エネルギー、プロシューマーモデル、ガバナンス改革の不均等な展開を明らかにした。エネルギーのショックが持続可能性への移行を促進する一方、EU内の地域間格差を浮き彫りにすることを示す。
English
This paper reframes the energy crisis from the Ukraine war as a catalyst for social innovation in the Baltic region. Comparing Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and Poland, it finds that decentralized energy practices and governance innovations emerge unevenly due to structural and geopolitical differences. The study argues energy shocks can drive resilience and sustainability transitions while exposing EU internal divergences.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本ではエネルギー価格高騰と安全保障が喫緊の課題。本論文の示す「危機による社会イノベーション」の視点は、日本のエネルギー転換政策（GX推進法、地域分散型エネルギー）にも示唆を与える。特にプロシューマー（自家消費型）モデルや地域ガバナンスの知見は、日本の地域エネルギー事業の参考となる。
In the global GX context
Globally, the paper contributes to understanding how geopolitical energy shocks can accelerate social innovation and sustainability transitions. It offers comparative evidence from the Baltic states and Poland, highlighting the role of institutional capacity and decentralized models. Useful for policymakers in energy-importing nations facing supply insecurity.

📄 Abstract（原文）
The recent energy crisis triggered by the Russian invasion of Ukraine has profoundly reshaped regional economies across the Baltic region, transforming energy from a market commodity into a strategic and geopolitical resource. While existing literature emphasises disruption and vulnerability, this paper reframes the crisis as a catalyst for social innovation. Drawing on a comparative analysis of Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Poland, the study examines how rising energy prices, supply insecurity and policy responses have stimulated new forms of behavioural adaptation, collective action and institutional change. Particular attention is given to decentralised energy practices, prosumer models and governance innovation. The findings reveal that social innovation emerges unevenly across national contexts, shaped by structural conditions, institutional capacity and geopolitical positioning. The paper argues that energy shocks can function as transformative moments, fostering resilience while also exposing internal divergences within the European Union, and reshaping regional pathways toward sustainability.
