Translated title:
Energy autonomy of an urban envirnment through RE installations: A study from the 'Science, Techonology, Society' field perspective
Summary:
The challenges of both the climate change and the economic crisis in Greece force us
to face the problem of energy poverty. The possibility of using already existing
Renewable Energy (RE) technologies opens up the opportunity to solve or, at least,
mitigate that problem. By questioning the centralized energy production model,
lowering the scale, and bringing the energy production from RE inside the very urban
environment, this study attempts, without questioning the technosocial
environment of a municipality of Athens, to give both technical and social answers to
the problems arising while attempting a complete energy autonomy for the entirety
of an urban municipality.
