What we do
The platform on Social Innovation in the Energy Transition supports knowledge exchange and deliberation between researchers, energy community members, and professionals from both the public and private sectors. This includes valorisation and dissemination of results from relevant academic and professional studies. In addition, the platform seeks to bring partners into contact with each other and encourage them to start collaboration. For instance, in researching topics relevant to social innovation in the energy transition, developing symposia, webinars or conferences, or developing (research) project proposals. More in general, the platform seeks to empower the community active in research about social innovation in the energy transition, and related topics and domains.
