SocialRES
Stand: 12.0.C10-32
SocialRES aims at closing non-technological research gaps that impede the widespread uptake of social innovation business and service models in the European energy sector. Through our research, we will set the basis for a better understanding of the socio-economic, socio-cultural, socio-political and gender factors that influence the behaviour of consumers in the energy system. What’s more, we will foster the development of new cooperation patterns among the key enabling actors for energy democracy: cooperatives, energy aggregators and crowdfunding platforms.

What drives social innovation? Why do people decide to participate in renewable energy projects? Our researchers will reply based on the analysis done in the SocialRES project with our case studies.
