Imagine trying to move a whole city to a new location without leaving anyone behind or making people angry. This project studies how to switch to clean energy without crashing local economies or hurting workers' wallets. It creates a roadmap so that the shift to green power is fair and accepted by everyone.
Companies and public bodies struggle to implement green energy transitions because of social backlash and economic instability for workers. There is a lack of clear data on how to balance competitiveness with social fairness.
A set of actionable policy recommendations and economic assessment tools to manage the social and economic trade-offs of climate neutrality.
If you are a utility provider dealing with workforce resistance to plant closures — this project developed economic assessment tools that identify how to manage the transition so workers and local communities support the change.
If you are a manufacturing plant dealing with high costs of decarbonization — this project developed analysis on the distributional impacts of the EU Green Deal to help you find the best policy options for financial support.
If you are a regional agency dealing with economic decline in mining areas — this project developed a set of actionable policy recommendations to ensure the local economy remains competitive during the shift to neutrality.
Based on available project data, there is no specific pricing or cost mentioned for the resulting policy recommendations.
The project focuses on policy recommendations and economic models rather than a physical product, meaning it is designed to be applied across EU-wide industrial sectors.
Based on available project data, the project practices open science, suggesting that results are intended for broad public and institutional use.
It specifically analyzes the impacts of the EU Green Deal, NextGenerationEU, and Fit for 55 packages.
The project runs from 2022-10-01 to 2026-09-30, with results being generated throughout this period.
The consortium is heavily weighted toward research and public bodies, featuring 22 partners across 11 countries. With only 1 industrial partner (a 5% ratio) and 2 SMEs, the project is primarily academic and policy-driven, though it leverages a 'quadruple helix' model to include civil society and public administration.
