| − | == The Past: Distributing energy the traditional way ==
| |
| − | * The traditional power grid
| |
| − | * production - transmission - distribution - consumer
| |
| − | * Electricity takes over other forms of energy (electric cars etc.)
| |
| − | * Russia-EU relations etc. increase uncertainty
| |
| − | * Current European Energy facilities will have to be modernised soon
| |
| − | * Energy trading taking over
| |
| − | * More and more people are installing solar panels on their own
| |
| − | | |
| − | == The Future: Smart grids - an outlook to what is possible ==
| |
| − | === The economic dimension ===
| |
| − | * more efficieny through smart grids
| |
| − | === The societal dimension ===
| |
| − | * consumers become co-producers
| |
| − | * "energy literacy" goes up
| |
| − | === The technological dimension ===
| |
| − | * both electricity and information are exchanged
| |
| − | === The environmental dimension ===
| |
| − | * pushing decarbonisation
| |
| − | * Consumers more likely to install renewable sources of energy (e.g. solar panels)
