SUSTAINABILITY, ENABLING FRAMEWORK, AND POLICY ROADMAP TOWARDS INCREASED
DIGITALIZATION IN ENERGY SECTOR
Environmental sustainability/carbon footprint associated with increased digitalization needs to be carefully studied to inform businesses and government decision makers. Digitalization can be facilitated in part by market needs and in other part via enabling framework that is policy.
This ESR will investigate effects of the enabling framework conditions such as policies and regulations towards an accelerated transition to a digitalized energy system and its longevity. A policy dialogue forum (PDF) through relevant consortium members, respective governments, the UN and EU associations will be run by the ESR to ensure better buy-in of findings by all parties, i.e. governments, industry and society. The ESR will develop a decisionsupport tool to inform on the environmental sustainability and prepare the policy roadmap for the sector to year 2030, that UN SDG target year
