Energy and Climate Transformations: 3rd International Conference on Energy Research & Social Science

The International Conference on Energy Research and Social Science, to be held on 20-23 June 2022 at the University of Manchester, is the premier global forum for exploring the nexus of energy and society.

The conference will highlight and explore the grand societal challenges arising at the interface of global energy transformations on the one hand, and ongoing climate mitigation and adaptation efforts on the other. It will offer a vibrant and innovative forum for presenting and discussing cutting edge research on the movement towards a low carbon future as it relates to reconfiguration in energy policies, infrastructural landscapes, socio-technical systems, and social practices.

We invite abstracts that explore the intersection of energy and social change. Illustrative examples of appropriate topics include, but are not limited to:

• Energy and justice
• Energy and place
• Energy and governance
• Energy and demand
• Energy and low-carbon transitions

We welcome interdisciplinary contributions from across the social sciences, environmental studies, humanities, and energy research.
