Abstract Numerous case studies show that citizens engage in various ways renewable and low carbon energy projects, thereby contributing to the sustainable transition. To date, however, a systematic cross-country database on citizen-led initiatives projects is lacking. By performing major compilation reviewing copious data sources from websites official registries, we provide Europe-wide inventory with over 10,000 16,000 production units 29 countries, focusing past 20 years. Our allow...
Energy communities (ECs), intended as collective action initiatives in the energy field involving citizens’ participation, have been gaining relevance for past decades an alternative way to organize chain challenge incumbent system. With Europe’s recently adopted Clean Package, ECs found a formal recognition by European Union potential actors of transition system towards wider and more decentralized use renewable sources. Although role is therefore hardly questionable, thorough comprehension...
This paper provides novel additional evidence on the characteristics of Collective Action Initiatives (CAIs), investigating their role within European energy sector. It analyses and presents results a survey administered in six countries: Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Poland, Estonia, Spain. CAIs are studied light four key dimensions, those being creation dynamics, way they organized, financed, activities undertake. The presented also interpreted to reflect as drivers social innovation (SI)...
Artykuł przedstawia wyniki badań nad uwarunkowaniami transformacji energetycznej regionów węglowych na przykładzie Śląska. Region ten jest głównym producentem węgla kamiennego i koksującego w Polsce, z 19 kopalniami licznymi elektrowniami węglowymi. Śląsk wysoce uprzemysłowiony zurbanizowany, wnosząc znaczący wkład polski PKB. Jest jednak również liderem pod względem emisji metanu dwutlenku węgla. W prezentowanych badaniach wykorzystano podejście bazujące teorii „napięć-odkształceń”...
Artykuł przedstawia rezultaty badań przeprowadzonych w ramach projektu ENTRANCES (finansowanego ze środków programu Horyzont 2020), które skoncentrowały się na analizie uwarunkowań socjologicznych procesie transformacji polegającej rezygnacji z produkcji węgla. Polskim obszarem badawczym tym projekcie był region Śląska. Badania dotyczyły problemów, jakie sposób nieunikniony dosięgną społeczność regionu miarę coraz głębszych przeobrażeń drodze do węgla kamiennego. W artykule...
We confront empirical data on citizen-led renewable energy capacities in Poland with results obtained from a meta-theoretical, analysis of the national system. elicit and rank essential disabling enabling factors that explain current low level citizen Poland. Altogether, we estimate contributions individual collective prosumers as amounting to about 3.2 GW, PV installations contributing more than 90%. Most activities are rather recent come prosumers. The greatest explanatory power connected...
A consortium benchmarking (CB) approach was used to conduct a study on development mechanisms and best practices for Collective Action Initiatives (CAIs) in the energy sector. National research teams (NRTs) were created six European countries (Belgium, Estonia, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Spain) each of which consisted approximately five CAIs, as well other stakeholders, governing bodies, academic researchers. In total, 32 CAIs served case studies. Each NRTs co-created questions...
