The global energy sector is undergoing rapid transformation while facing critical challenges such as a shortage of skilled professionals, outdated knowledge, and the urgent need for a just energy transition. In Argentina, where 86% of energy still derives from fossil fuels despite vast renewable potential, …

Precarity and budget cuts plague arts and culture while they are still recovering from the damages of the pandemic. Meanwhile, extreme right wing politics spreads across the world and increases censorship and repression on artists and cultural practitioners. How can creatives come together and build …

With this article, I explore the connections between blockchain technology, coloniality, and decolonial practices. Drawing on Sylvia Wynter’s thought on the interdependent systems of colonialism, capitalism, and knowledge, as well as more recent work on the coloniality of digital technologies, I argue …

In Europe, green hydrogen and biogas/green gas are considered important renewable energy carriers, besides renewable electricity and heat. Still, incentives proceed slowly, and the feasibility of local green gas is questioned. A supply chain of decentralised green hydrogen production from locally generated …

This book brings together voices from various fields of intellectual inquiry, based on the idea that technological, legal and societal aspects of the information sphere are interlinked and co-dependent from each other. In order to tackle the existing gap in shared semantics, this glossary converges the …

Decentralised renewable energy production in the form of fuels or electricity can have large scale deployment in future energy systems, but the feasibility needs to be assessed. The novelty of this paper is in the design and implementation of a mixed integer linear programming optimisation model to minimise …

This research project sought to address the problem of how sustainability emerges within financial services organisations in Namibia, Botswana and Zambia. In particular I was interested to learn more about how to harness the self-organising capacity which is inherent in all complex systems in nature, …

The need to reduce carbon emissions calls for more use of renewable generation, particularly distributed resources. The intermittency of renewable generation, and concerns about energy security, require us to become more independent of central grid operation by use of local or regional (micro-grid) electricity …
