The reduction targets of carbon dioxide emissions are set on EU and national level. However the transition process towards such a low carbon society is characterised by a high degree of uncertainty and complexity. Thus possible strategies and measures need to be able to adjust to uncertain changes, overcome stagnations due to conflicts and foster innovations. The most important prerequisite to accomplish effective and efficient measures towards a low carbon society is to produce robust knowledge. The production of robust and applicable knowledge is based on an interdisciplinary approach that considers the multi-dimensional and vale-based concept of sustainability. Meaning that the integration of the different knowledge types system knowledge, target knowledge and transformations knowledge is a core challenge of developing sustainable solution. In this manner the Institute of Energy and Climate Research – Systems Analysis and Technology Evaluation (IEK-STE) operationalises and investigates social and political principles and objectives in terms of their importance for future energy systems and the associated transformation process. The R&Dialogue project contributed to this aim in testing a new approach of knowledge co-production and fostering the dialogue between science and civil society. ... |
