MISTRAL - Multi-sectoral approaches to Innovative Skills Training for Renewable energy & sociAL acceptance

Europe is changing to a low carbon economy. While there is a substantial expansion of renewable energy generating capacity, we are witnessing increasing levels of opposition to individual projects. Understanding the roots and causes of this opposition is a major challenge for everyone involved in the renewable energy transition. MISTRAL aims to train a new generation of researchers who can evaluate the complexity of social acceptance issues facing the deployment of renewable energy infrastructure, and propose innovative solutions in a variety of research, government and business contexts. MISTRAL will provide a world-class training environment where young researchers can develop advanced research techniques and transferable skills.
