Abstract

TransWind assesses how the transition of the Austrian energy system to a high penetration of wind energy can be successfully managed. Based on stakeholder dialogues and an integrated assessment the key issues of social acceptance will be identified. With a reliable conceptual and methodological approach guided by modelling and visualisation efforts, TransWind is able to go beyond traditional mitigation studies as it provides an inter- and transdisciplinary cross-level analyses.
