We have generated massive numbers of energy (mobility) systems models for the past decades, aiming at accelerating the energy transition. Nevertheless, the energy transition does not seem to realize as rapidly as we expected. Why does this happen? Are we missing something when developing models? How can we make energy systems models useful enough to advise policy-makers and citizens to make decisions to use a far less amount of fossil fuels? How can we design energy systems models to let interdisciplinary researchers and industries better understand what each other says and therefore learn what they can do better for accelerating the energy transition? I joined the NEON project to solve those questions. My key terms are decision-making in sustainability and circular economy, human behavior, and education.
