OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The way we produce and use energy is changing – from large-scale infrastructure and system changes (e.g. renewables, hydrogen) to new technologies in our homes (e.g. heat pumps, energy storage). A successful green energy transition therefore requires support from the public – developers need a social license to operate, and householders need to buy and adopt new technologies. This talk will cover what we know about public acceptance of energy technologies and future energy systems. Christina will also discuss why early and meaningful public engagement can be an effective way to ensure publics are involved in decision processes and lead to better and fairer energy transitions.
