ENERGY FROM RENEWABLE SOURCES AND SOCIATY – NECESSARY CHANGES IN THE SYSTEM
Journal Title: Proceedings of Electrotechnical Institute Prace Instytutu Elektrotechniki - Year 2012, Vol 59, Issue 259
Abstract
The technical and sociological aspects necessary for the effective implementation of EU environmental policy will be presented. In connection with the observed adverse climate changes Brussels proposes to reduce up to 80% use of electricity from conventional sources by 2020. According to the European Union in the answer to these assumptions should be increase the production of clean energy from ecological sources, ex: solar, wind or water. At the end of the second decade of the current century it will be one fifth of European needs. However, the use of new, green technology requires a change in the whole system - the so-called. 'System Innovation'. This article presents a transformation from a technical economy based on conventional energy sources for environmentally sustainable development as a system change. Presenting various theoretical models of innovation the authors discuss how has to change social and institutional context that new technologies for using renewable energy sources are no longer niche.
