National Energy Research and Policy Conference
The annual conference, which took place on the 8th September, aimed to facilitate discussion on the role of energy research and policy in achieving Ireland’s long term clean energy goals.
2022 National Energy Research and Policy Conference
Theme: Societal Transformation
Thursday 8th September 2022, online
The 2022 National Energy Research and Policy Conference focused on the theme of Societal Transformation for delivering Ireland’s energy revolution. Transitioning Ireland to a society based on sustainable energy systems and practices will require not only technological innovation, but will also require major social, behavioural and organisational change to support this transition. The 2022 conference featured speakers from a wide range of disciplines, covering topics from the role of psychology in sustainable energy solutions, early public engagement, and behavioural change, to community-led initiatives to develop, deliver and benefit from sustainable energy.
This conference was hosted online and was open to all. We heard from policy makers, academic experts, energy industry and community representatives from Ireland, and internationally, who shared their research findings, policy ambitions and insights, and engaged in lively discussions, in the field of societal transformation and the energy transition.
