SUMMARY:Low Carbon Energy for Development Network 2nd International Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Couldn’t attend? You can view videos of all the presentations\, see the powerpoints\, photos\, tweets and more via the event Storify. \n  \nThe second international workshop of the Low Carbon Energy for Development Network (LCEDN)\, titled Transitions to low carbon energy systems: which pathways to energy access for all?\, will take place at the University of Sussex in Brighton in the UK on the 10th and 11th September 2012. The registration deadline is 30 August (please note the change of date). \nThis event is intended to identify and discuss priority questions that need to be answered to meet the UN goal of “Sustainable energy for all”. Reflecting on the outcomes and implications of Rio+20\, the workshop will have a particular focus on the extent to which low carbon development can simultaneously address concerns around energy access\, poverty reduction\, human development and economic growth. \nThe workshop is international in both its scope and significance and it will be hosted by the STEPS Centre and SPRU – Science & Technology Policy Research and at the University of Sussex\, and is supported by the UK Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). \nThe event will involve participants drawn from across a wide array of academic communities\, government departments\, private sector organisations and NGOs\, as well as a range of countries. \nWorkshop goals\nIntended outcomes include the forging of new south-north partnerships for addressing the research priorities emerging from the workshop and will be designed to address a series of questions\, such as: \n\n\nIn addition to the technical issues of low carbon energy technologies\, what are the challenges to achieving energy access for all?\nWhat are the links between energy technologies\, energy services\, development and poverty reduction?\nWhat are the implications for energy access of rapid urbanisation and what can we do as researchers\, policy makers and practitioners to ensure the provision of sustainable energy for the urban poor?\nWhat financing mechanisms work\, and what else needs to be done to make finance work for the poor?\n\n\nPlanned sessions include:\n\nThe development benefits of low carbon energy access: what is the evidence?\nTransformative energy pathways: the political economy of low carbon energy access\nGroup consultations on the evidence and the challenges\nLow carbon energy technology transfer\, development and poverty reduction\nFinancing sustainable energy for all: what works\, and what needs to change?\nPlenary discussion identifying follow-on workshops\, partnerships and research priorities\n\nSee the event website for the full programme\, further details and how to register online. \nFollow the story of the event via Storify and the hashtag #LCEDN2 \nContact:\n \nBettina Zenz\,\nProject Coordinator\,\nSPRU – Science and Technology Policy Research\nFreeman Centre\nUniversity of Sussex\nFalmer BN1 9QF\nT: (01273) 878166\nE: b.zenz@sussex.ac.uk \nSTEPS work on energy and climate change: \n\nRob Byrne explains our energy and climate change domain work\nProject: Find out about our project on low carbon technology uptake in developing countries
