As a doctoral student you will work in the project “Evaluating transformative energy governance in an urban context”. The aim of this project is to increase the capacity of cities to govern transformative change towards sustainable and climate-neutral energy systems. The project, which has an interdisciplinary approach, includes in all three doctoral students - one at Lund university (IIIEE), one at Linköping University and one at Stockholm Environmental Institute. The project is funded by the Swedish Energy Agency and the doctoral students will be part of the national interdisciplinary graduate school in Energy Systems.
The focus of the project is on the evaluation of transformative policy tools for climate-neutral energy system, and the development of an interdisciplinary evaluation framework that will allow for building strategies of continuous, learning-oriented evaluation approaches that can make the implementation of new transformative policy instruments more effective. The empirical focus will be on transformative governance tools which are currently gaining increasing attention in research and policy, (1) urban experimentation and system demonstrations, (2) transformative finance at the city level, and (3) public procurement for system innovation.
