Exploring social dimensions of sustainability in emerging battery technology research

EERA JP ES SP6 invites to the digital mapping workshop on 31st May.

WS aim & expectations 

Within this digital mapping workshop, the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) integration into Clean Energy Transition on the example of emerging battery technology research will be explored. The event aims to bring together researchers from different scientific fields to map approaches for the social dimensions of sustainability. 

Why? is the interconnection of SSH and CET/battery research important? 

What? are the terminology ambiguities: sustainability and social aspects should be strongly limited regarding time. What are the expectations, where do technology and social perspectives meet and overlap, which sort of research projects would fulfil the above mentioned? 

How? to map approaches for the dimensions of sustainability including social sciences and humanities (SSH) in Clean Energy Transition (CET) on an example of battery research. As a result, mapping for sustainability/SSH aspects integration into CET (battery storage) research and research gaps will be summarized.
