Conference: Energy Security and Citizens

Nordic Energy Research

Welcome to the conference Energy Security and Citizens on 19 October in Reykjavík, Iceland.

Hilton Reykjavik Nordica

The Nordic countries are experiencing an unprecedented energy crisis. The situation varies from country to country, but everywhere a new concern has risen among citizens and industry: Can we be sure to get un-interrupted supply of energy? At the same time, new energy infrastructures can change landscapes. Without good dialogue with the surrounding communities, people's sense of involvement as well as their attitude towards new energy production might be affected. The more our citizens are engaged in the process and the planning, the better. Engagement can lead not only to acceptance, but also to active ownership – perhaps even economic co-ownership. How do we best do this? J﻿oin us for a session addressing some of the most pressing energy issues in the Nordic region, through expert comments, discussion, and panel debate. The conference will also offer great possibilities to network. Participation is free and everyone are welcome to attend.
