Project description
An innovative transformative process towards energy transition
The effective transformation of the European fossil-based energy sector into a zero-carbon one requires the implementation of socio-technical systems and the consideration of the particularities of each territory. The EU-funded RIPEET project aims to bring together quintuple helix actors of the territorial socio-technical energy regime in Transition Labs to envisage and implement a place-based energy transition process. RIPEET’s objective is to support responsible research and innovation (RRI) policy experimentations for the energy transition in three European territories – Extremadura (ES), the Highlands and Islands of Scotland (UK) and Ostrobothnia (FI). Using existing landscape and regime-level pressures, the project aspires to facilitate the development of territorial socio-technical futures based on RRI actions.
Objective
The RIPEET project will support Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) policy experimentations for energy transition in three European territories - in Extremadura (ES), Highlands and Islands of Scotland (UK) and Ostrobothnia (FI). The methodology builds on RRI, transformative innovation, transition management and the Multi-Level-Perspective. RIPEET brings together quintuple helix actors of the territorial socio-technical energy regime in Transition Labs in order to envisage and implement a place-based energy transition process. Building on this evolutionary model of socio-technical transitions, RIPEET will use existing landscape and regime-level pressures to facilitate the development of territorial socio-technical futures based on RRI actions. The governance and agency in this transformative process will be organised within the Transition Labs. These Labs will bring together stakeholders to co-create common visions based on the potentials and priorities of territorial eco-systems (mapping and visioning), generate transition pathways and innovation needs, launching a call for immediate bottom-up solutions to these (pathways and piloting) and anchor the process on organisational as well as policy level (sustainability and exploitation). The framework conditions, processes, and outcomes of these experiments will be mapped, monitored, and evaluated. This constitutes an evidence-base for the revision of sectoral policies, strategies and research and innovation (R&I) instruments as well as for establishing a European RIPEET community. Thereby, RIPEET will support territories in establishing experimental spaces to address the territorial dimensions of the European Green Deal. The consortium consists of 11 renowned and EU-FP-experienced universities, research organisations, SMEs, CSOs, business and innovation centres and regional authorities from seven European countries, with the competences and territorial anchoring necessary to implement the approach.
