The energy system needs to be transformed to phase out fossil fuels and achieve climate neutrality. To create a resilient, secure and just energy transition, new forms of energy production are needed that combine large-scale, centralized production with small-scale, decentralized production in new ways. This systemic shift presents challenges and opportunities. As we focus on putting new technological systems in place and making energy use more efficient, we also need to consider how it affects people's economic and social situations and living environments. During this Transition Lab Forum, we will explore how the municipality, together with other stakeholders, can ensure a fair and sustainable energy transition.
