1st International Symposium on Energy System Analysis (ISESA) “Next level of security of supply: a resilience strategy for the energy transition”

,A successful energy transition requires a complex transformation process that considers technical, economic, ecological, and social dimensions. Energy systems analysis uses methods and tools from different disciplines to provide insights from these dimensions and to integrate them into a holistic view of future defossilised energy systems.

The International Symposium on Energy System Analysis (ISESA) offers an international platform for experts from various disciplines to discuss different aspects of the energy transition. Several issues in the development of this complex system are highlighted and debated in an interdisciplinary context. The theme of this year’s ISESA is “Next level of security of supply: a resilience strategy for the energy transition”.

The symposium will address the vulnerabilities of the “new” energy system, such as the lack of technical flexibility, low user acceptance, and high dependency on rare materials. Additionally, the symposium will discuss aspects of governance, energy justice and elements of resilience strategies. All of these aspects have significant impacts on the future of defossilised energy systems.

If you are conducting research in these areas and are interested in interdisciplinary exchange, we invite you to contribute to our symposium by submitting an abstract (see details below) and participating in our discussions at the 1 st International Symposium on Energy System Analysis in Stuttgart, Germany.

We are pleased to announce Prof. Dr. Russell McKenna (ETH Zurich) and Prof. Dr. Armin Grunwald (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) as our keynote speakers.
