Fair Energy Transition Webinar Series – Webinar 2 – Koen Straver & Peter Mulder (TNO)

The last Thursday of each month between 16h and 17h (Dutch time; UTC+01:00), we invite a speaker to present their work on the fair energy transition.

This webinar will focus on a theme that gained a lot of societal attention in the last few weeks; energy poverty in the Netherlands. Koen Straver and Peter Mulder from TNO (a Dutch research organization) will present their report ‘Energy poverty in The Netherlands: how much, where and who?’ as well as their white paper ‘Energy poverty and the energy transition’. They will also touch upon topics related to the energy transition that might emerge into unfair consequences for households.
