Description
Clean Energy System Transition (REPower-CEST) project has three main objectives:
1. To create a comprehensive view of the solutions, impacts, implementation challenges and opportunities related to the clean energy transition and replacing fossil fuels.
2. To produce information, tools and service concepts needed to analyse, manage and solve the challenges and risks related to the environmental, economic and social dimensions of the clean energy transition.
3. To develop a roadmap based on a broad knowledge base for implementing a sustainable and just clean energy transition in Finland by 2035
The project will produce materials, models and tools to support decision-making. The primary objective is to develop a roadmap for implementing a sustainable and fair clean energy transition in Finland by 2035.
The project is funded by the financial support for the green transition by the European Union (number 151, P5C1I2, NextGenerationEU, project REPower-CEST).
