Why JustWind4All?

To achieve the EUʼs climate and energy targets by 2030 and beyond, the production and use of renewable energy sources will need to accelerate. This transformation will affect every part of our lives, including our environment, economy and society. As one of the key renewable sources, the deployment of wind energy needs to be fair, democratic and effective.

JustWind4All is a Horzion Europe research and innovation project that supports the acceleration of on- and offshore wind energy, including emerging wind technologies like airborne and floating, through just and effective governance.

Using a trans-disciplinary approach, the project aims to better understand the trade-offs of wind energy deployment,  improve decision-making and foster wind energy citizenship.

JustWind4All addresses 4 challenges to wind energy deployment, including:


KNOWLEDGE

Wind energy governance actors need to be better equipped with fit for purpose models and assessments for decision-making.

JUSTICE

Social disputes against wind energy need to be addressed by considering notions of energy justice.

POLICY FRAMEWORKS

Need to focus on the interrelations between governance levels to foster
more coherent policy frameworks for wind energy.

NOVEL RESOURCES

Resources potential across regions, practices and technologies need to be quantified – learning from previous experiences.


RGI's Role in JustWind4All - Wind Forum Coordinators

RGI convenes and coordinates JustWind4All’s Wind Forum. The Wind Forum builds upon and enhances existing networks of wind energy actors with a common interest in accelerating just wind energy development.

The Wind Forum brings together local, regional, national and EU-level stakeholders across policy, community, market and third sector to meet, network, and exchange knowledge on demand-driven strategies.

Within the Wind Forum, we have five regional Wind Labs that serve as spaces for idea and knowledge exchange to connect actors and researchers in addressing and testing specific challenges and solutions for accelerated wind energy development. The Wind Labs test and promote the application of our research assessing socio-environmental impact, energy system modelling, and wind energy citizenship.
