The Energy Nexus Group - An Interdisciplinary Research Agenda

It is argued that next-generation energy access solutions will need to incorporate the relations to other spheres of influence linked to the energy field. This is required in order to create an understanding of challenges, working mechanisms and best practices to systematically address the complex issue of energy access for long-term, scalable impact. The research will thus create a unique platform for knowledge exchange between experts with diverse backgrounds and origins. Solutions will be adapted to local and regional circumstances by incorporating information exchange between institutions from different countries and regions (South-South learning) as well as the sensitive inclusion of feedback from researched communities.
