This funding is a chance for groups of two or more Engineering X Frontiers symposium participants to put systems approaches into practice whilst tackling the energy access and/or just energy transition challenges.
Funding examples
The funding could support, but is not limited to, the following activities:
- Bringing together a consortium of symposium participants to implement projects using systems approaches on energy transition pathways.
- Creating prototypes for products or services supporting energy transition decisions, such as energy-efficient cooling systems that integrate systems approaches in the project design and implementation.
- Convening stakeholders and organising discussions to understand different perspectives on energy access and identify opportunities for collective action.
- Using systems approaches to gain preliminary data to form the basis for a new project, intervention, product, or service related to circularity and technology's end-of-life.
- Developing workshops for stakeholders to envision future energy transition scenarios, co-create solutions, and inform policymakers.
- Using systems approaches to create communities of interest around specific energy transition and energy access challenges.
