From August 27 to September 1, 2023, Theresa Rötzel attended the summer school "Energy Technology, Policy, and Politics – How to Build a Net-Zero GHG Emissions Energy System" organized by the Institute of Science, Technology, and Policy (ISTP) of ETH Zurich and the Energy Science Center (ESC) at Monte Verità in Ascona, Switzerland.
The participants of the summer school engaged in a rich program that included 12 keynotes covering a wide area of topics such as zero-emission transport, the politics of phasing down global coal, and company perspectives on transitioning to net zero. Furthermore, the participants presented their own research projects through scientific posters and received feedback from peers and speakers.
Another highlight of the summer school was the exploration of case studies, which aimed to deepen the understanding of the complexities, interrelationships, opportunities, and risks associated with various national pathways toward a net-zero greenhouse gas economy.
Overall, it was an inspiring week with insightful discussions and a rich exchange of ideas in an interdisciplinary environment.
