Transition to renewable energy and its promotion are key priorities when we talk about fighting climate change. However, this transition requires significant financial and technology investments as well as an acceptance by the society. Although surveys show high support for renewable energy in general, there is a gap between this high level of support and the lower success rate of deployed projects. How can we address this gap? Which are the key stakeholders in public perception and acceptance of renewable energy projects?
This webinar will show the importance of social acceptance in developing projects, give insights into stakeholder engagement strategies and present lessons learned from industry and academia.
