Abstract:
This paper is the introduction to a topical collection on \"Changing Values and Energy Systems\" that consists of six contributions that examine instances of value change regarding the design, use and operation of energy systems. This introduction discusses the need to consider values in the energy transition. It examines conceptions of value and value change and how values can be addressed in the design of energy systems. Value change in the context of energy and energy systems is a topic that has recently gained traction. Current, and past, energy transitions often focus on a limited range of values, such as sustainability, while leaving other salient values, such as energy democracy, or energy justice, out of the picture. Furthermore, these values become entrenched in the design of these systems: it is hard for stakeholders to address new concerns and values in the use and operation of these systems, leading to further costly transitions and systems\' overhaul. To remedy this issue, value change in the context of energy systems needs to be better understood. We also need to think about further requirements for the governance, institutional and engineering design of energy systems to accommodate future value change. Openness, transparency, adaptiveness, flexibility and modularity emerge as new requirements within the current energy transition that need further exploration and scrutiny.
摘要:
本文是对“不断变化的价值和能源系统”主题集合的介绍,其中包括六个贡献,这些贡献检查了有关设计的价值变化实例,能源系统的使用和操作。本引言讨论了在能源转型中考虑价值的必要性。它研究了价值和价值变化的概念,以及如何在能源系统的设计中解决价值。能源和能源系统背景下的价值变化是一个最近获得关注的话题。Current,过去,能量转换通常集中在有限范围的值上,比如可持续性,在留下其他突出价值的同时,比如能源民主,或者能源正义,从图片中。此外,这些价值观在这些系统的设计中根深蒂固:利益相关者很难在这些系统的使用和操作中解决新的关切和价值观,导致进一步昂贵的过渡和系统大修。为了解决这个问题,需要更好地理解能源系统背景下的价值变化。我们还需要考虑对治理的进一步要求,能源系统的机构和工程设计,以适应未来的价值变化。开放,透明度,适应性,灵活性和模块化是当前能源转型中的新要求,需要进一步探索和审查。
