Objectives
- Analyzing socio-economic consequences of the different transition scenarios (inequality / access /
income distribution / public space / participation) - Co-create desired transition pathways towards sustainable and just urban energy-mobility systems
- Developing proactive governance strategies to advance such desired pathways to maximize
societal benefits (link to WP9)
Activities
- Baseline analysis of persistent problems in urban energy/mobility
- Exploring socio-economic consequences of the different transition scenarios (inequality / access /
income distribution / public space / participation) with specific attention for the use cases of i
Rotterdam, De Verkeersonderneming and the living labs in the Province of Noord-Brabant. (link to
WP’s 2, 4 & 7 ). We would like to realize quadrupple cooperation in four living Labs in Brabant and
stimulate acceptance by civilians and support businesses - To develop quantitative socio-technical transition scenarios and assess their potential impacts
related to identified persistent problems. - Co-creating desired transition pathways for urban energy/mobility with De Verkeersonderneming
and Citizens. The output of Task 1 will provide the basis for participatory co-creation of concrete
transition roadmaps towards zero emission, smart, sustainable and inclusive energy/mobility
systems. The task will be led by EUR, supported by TuE, in close cooperation with the city of
Rotterdam, De Verkeersonderneming and Province Brabant. The concrete output will be
reports/documents on the developed roadmaps for setup of practical field tests with maximum
effects and well designed monitoring methodology for learning the best out of the experiments. - Developing sustainability transition governance for energy/mobility. Led by EUR, we will explore
the dilemma’s, dynamics and decisions to advance desired transition roadmaps. These include
typical government-led interventions as well as market-based strategies and civil-society
initiatives, including ideas developed in other WPs on behavioral change, pricing and cooperative
models. This will lead to an ‘urban energy/mobility transition handbook’.
