RIPEET Webinar Series: Energy Transition on Islands - Diversity of islands, common learning opportunities

The RIPEET project supports Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) policy experimentations for energy transition in three European territories - Extremadura (ES), the Outer Hebrides (UK) and Ostrobothnia (FI).

As part of the RIPEET project, a series of webinars have been organised to discuss challenges and innovative solutions to better support sustainable energy transition in European regions.

The third webinar will be held on 15 December and will address islands‘ energy transitions and their diversity through cases discussing the particular challenges faced in different island contexts. Indeed, islands‘ particular contexts, from energy potential, grid structure, spatial organisation to social contexts, will greatly influence their capacity to engage in the energy transition. This webinar will allow participants to gain a deeper understanding of the crucial role of local communities, technology integration, and supportive policy frameworks in building resilient and renewable energy systems.
