本論文は、ドイツの太陽光産業に対するグリーン産業政策の軌跡を追跡し、セクター内の協調の失敗が政策実施をいかに損なったかを示す。産業政策は受益者を動員したが、同時にサプライチェーンに沿った断片化を引き起こし、衰退のスパイラルに陥れた。セクターのガバナンス能力の維持が産業政策の成否に重要であると結論付ける。
English
This article examines Germany's green industrial policies for solar energy from the 1990s to the 2010s, showing how intra-sectoral conflicts undermined implementation. State support created a broad coalition that fragmented along supply chain divisions under international competition, leading to a downward spiral of decline and dependence. The findings highlight the importance of maintaining sectoral governance capabilities for successful industrial policy.

日本のGX文脈において
日本の太陽光産業政策（FITなど）にも示唆を与える。政策実施におけるサプライチェーン調整の重要性を指摘。日本のGX政策にも応用可能な教訓。
In the global GX context
This paper offers a cautionary tale for global green industrial policy, especially for countries like Japan pursuing large-scale renewable energy deployment. It underscores that policy design must include mechanisms for supply chain coordination and collective voice to prevent fragmentation and decline.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:Highlights the underappreciated role of sectoral coordination in industrial policy implementation, offering a framework for analyzing policy failures.
🏢実務担当者:Corporate sustainability teams can learn the risks of supply chain fragmentation and the need for industry-wide governance structures to sustain policy support.
🏛政策担当者:Regulators should consider not only financial incentives but also sectoral coordination mechanisms to avoid lock-in and decline of domestic industries.
📄 Abstract（原文）
This article contributes to the study of the practice of industrial policy by highlighting an underappreciated dimension in the existing literature: the role of sectoral coordination in policy implementation. Empirically, it traces the trajectory of green industrial policies for solar energy in Germany from the early 1990s into the 2010s. Drawing on policy documents, news coverage, industry reports, and secondary literature, the article shows how intra-sectoral conflicts undermined industrial policy implementation. While industrial policies successfully mobilized beneficiaries, they simultaneously undermined the sector’s capacity for coordination. The case study demonstrates how state support for renewable energy technology created a broad support coalition that, when facing international competition and domestic opposition, fragmented along supply chain divisions. This fragmentation locked the sector into a downward spiral of industrial decline, dependence on state assistance, and declining political legitimacy. The findings suggest that models of industrial policy focusing primarily on flows of state support may be insufficient. Doing industrial policy may depend equally on maintaining sectoral governance capabilities—including structures for supply chain coordination and mechanisms for collective voice.
