Energy Transformation with Social Equity

Professor Kenneth Baldwin,ANU ECI Director

Greetings from the Australian National University in Canberra, where I am taking part in a symposium on

"Social equity in the energy transformation". ANU researchers project that the crossover to more renewable than fossil fuel electricity generation will happen in Australia by 2025. The question now is not if this will happen, but how to handle the social and economic effects of this. Without action this may make social inequities much worse in Australia.

Topics:

1. Social Equity in Energy Supply
2. Social Equity in Energy Consumption
3. The Emerging Role of Energy Prosumers

ps: I am taking part as a member of the ANU Energy Change Institute and as I teach ICT Sustainability.
