Introduction of Regional Energy Concepts
The classic central energy systems based on fossil fuels and nuclear power have a central supply distributing the energy to the consumers. Contrary to this, renewable energies and energy efficiency need the action of many persons, citizens, municipalities and enterprises in order to succeed. In addition the acceptance of the population plays important role in the change towards renewable energies. Subjects like wind energy turbines in a tourist region already spark controversial discussions among the citizens. The aim of the project is to overcome this skepticism of the public to renewable energies in general and to foster consensus on their use by public.
