CICEP - Strategic Challenges in International Climate and Energy Policy
CICEP is one of three centres for social science based research on environment-friendly energy established by the Research Council of Norway in 2011. The centre will help identify and design realistic international policy options and strategies that can effectively drive the transition towards a low-carbon energy future. Second, the centre will help determine the consequences of plausible policy options and trajectories for global and European energy and energy technology markets, for major Norwegian industries, and for government strategies.
Do we need another global sustainability conference? More specifically, what can be gained by spending a substantial amount of human and financial resources on the Rio+20 process?
Making the world’s energy supply more climate-friendly is a formidable challenge, not only technically but politically as well. The CICEP research centre will investigate which policy instruments can effectively stimulate such change.
