The transition to environmentally friendly energy requires an energy system that balances demand with supply. But how is energy actually used, and can we change how we use it? And where on earth will energy come from in the future, if we're to stop burning coal, oil and gas? In this episode of EnerView we'll hear from Kari Espegren, research director energy systems analysis at IFE, Institute for Energy Technology, Professor Tomas Moe Skjølsvold from the Faculty of Humanities at NTNU, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, from CenSES leader Professor Asgeir Tomasgard, also from NTNU, and from IFE researcher Pernille Seljom. EnerView is produced by Room 7540 in partnership with CenSES, a Norwegian interdisciplinary centre for sustainable energy studies (FME Society). www.CenSES.no.  

Denne episoden av EnerSikt tar for seg politiske strategier som kan lede til et lavutslippssamfunn. Vi har med oss Tomas Moe Skjølsvold, fra NTNUs Institutt for tverrfaglige kulturstudier og Kari Espegren, forskningsleder energisystemanalyse ved IFE, Institutt for Energiteknologi. Vi tar dessuten turen til et nullutslippshus med sosiolog Marius Korsnes fra NTNUs Institutt for tverrfaglige kulturstudier, for å finne ut hvordan det er å bo der. EnerSikt produseres av Room 7540 i samarbeid med CenSES, et tverrfaglig nasjonalt forskningssenter for miljøvennlig energi (FME Samfunn). www.CenSES.no.

This episode of EnerView investigates what politicians and policy makers can do to help us create a low carbon society. We'll hear from Tomas Moe Skjølsvold, associate professor at NTNU and research area leader of transitions strategies at the Centre for Sustainable Energy Studies, and from Kari Espegren,research leader energy systems analysis at the Institute for Energy Technology’s renewable energy systems department. We'll also visit a zero emission house with sociologist Marius Korsnes, from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology's Department of Interdisciplinary Studies of Culture, to find out what it's like to live in one.   EnerView is produced by Room 7540 in partnership with CenSES, a Norwegian interdisciplinary centre for sustainable energy studies (FME Society). www.CenSES.no.

Helhetsforståelse og tverrfaglig samarbeid må til om Norge skal kunne gjennomføre et tilfredsstillende grønt skifte, og dermed møte sine internasjonale miljøforpliktelser på et vis som også gagner vanlige folk og samfunnet generelt. I denne episoden av EnerSikt vil Professor Asgeir Tomasgard, senterleder CenSES og leder for NTNUs institutt for industriell økonomi og teknologiledelse forklare energisystemets sentrale rolle, og hvorfor politisk nytenkning er viktig. Vi treffer også Kari Espegren, avdelingsleder og seniorforsker ved Institutt for Energiteknikk, som vil fortelle om hvordan energiforskere jobber. 

An overall perspective and interdisciplinary cooperation are essential if Norway is to carry out a satisfactory renewable energy transition, thus meeting its international environmental obligations in a way that also benefits ordinary people and society in general. In this episode of EnerView, Professor Asgeir Tomasgard, Director of CenSES and head of the Institute for Industrial Economics and Technology Management at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), will explain the energy system’s central role, and why political innovation is important. We will also meet Kari Espegren, head of department and senior researcher at the Institute for Energy Technology (IFE), who will tell us about how energy researchers work.
