VOICE OF FUTURE GENERATIONS

Is the transition of the energy sector strenthening our democracies?

VOICE OF FUTURE GENERATIONS

Message 1: The question of democracy is closely related to the question of participation. And participation is the key-formula for a rapid and widely accepted uptake of renewable energy Message 2: When pursuing the energy transition the added value of social inclusion, local value creation and local participation associated with the renewable energy uptake must not be ignored Message 3: Social acceptance of renewable energy still must be converted into community acceptance through early involvement and participation Message 4: the key factor of increasing social acceptance eventually is the question of costs for the people
