<br>researchers, industry and policy makers to explore the technological,
<br>economic, ethical, behavioral, governance and public policy aspects of urban
<br>energy systems.

<br>Erik ten Elshof (Ministry of Economic Affairs, Netherlands)
<br>
<br>Theme
<br>Urban energy systems are going through fundamental technological and societal
<br>changes in the transition to sustainable energy systems. From being passive
<br>agglomerations of energy consumption and environmental pollution, the future
<br>energy provision of cities is deemed to be cleaner, smarter and closer to the
<br>needs of citizens. For a successful transition towards sustainable urban
<br>energy systems, technological and social innovations need to be aligned with
<br>the underlying societal values and guided by the wider institutional and
<br>governance context.
<br>
<br>Topics include, but are not limited to:
<br>
<br> Governance, policy and regulation of urban energy systems
<br>
<br> Social innovations and local energy initiatives
<br>
<br> Responsible innovation in energy systems
<br>
<br> Energy justice and poverty
<br>
<br> Energy demand: energy demand side management, energy efficiency,
<br>energy consumption and conservation
<br>
<br> Public engagement, controversies and conflicts in changing energy
<br>systems, participatory methods, consumer empowerment
<br>
<br> Digitalization: smart grid, artificial intelligence and blockchain
<br>technology
<br>
<br> Integration of energy systems: electricity, gas and heating
<br>
<br>
