Just Energy Transition

Shifting from a carbon-based economy in a socially responsible way

ECOSYSTEM MAP OF EFFORTS ON A JUST ENERGY TRANSITION

A Just Energy Transition brings together two things: the existential imperative to transition to clean energy and meet Net Zero targets; and the social imperative to ensure workforces, communities and consumers are not left behind or bearing an unfair cost. Both carry risks to be mitigated and opportunities to be seized. 

A wealth of effort is being deployed to understand, enable and accelerate a Just Energy Transition. To support collaboration between these efforts, we have brought into one place the organisations, efforts and literature focused on a Just Energy Transition. We’ve specifically chosen to highlight organisations that have visible, public consideration of the importance of the 'just' element of the energy transition, beyond a brief mention.

Our ecosystem infographic, open database, library and insight blog are freely accessible, with links to the relevant pages of organisations’ websites, in the spirit of maximising visibility and collaboration.

The map has a UK emphasis for now, whilst including many key international efforts. We hope to paint a richer picture of global efforts in future versions.
