- Abstract
- This report considers some of the institutional factors which might affect the development and implementation of an innovative utility project and in particular of a Modular Integrated Utility System (MIUS). A case study of the planning and implementation stages of a major utility project was undertaken along with several studies of less complex utility projects. An annotated bibliography exploring the literature on institutional response to existing or proposed utility projects and to innovation in general is included.
