Main topic: Redistribution of costs and benefits across the global energy landscape

Context: Complex systems, change and unintended consequences

Outline: What impacts will the development of renewables and decarbonization bring to countries' economies? What political and geopolitical implications will these impacts have? What measures are countries taking to strengthen the positive effects and mitigate the negative ones?

Sources: The question of the impacts of the energy transition is as complicated as the transition itself. Fortunately, there is a summary text from IRENA (pages 26-62) that presents the main levels of the issue. Then listen to Antony Funnell's podcast on ABC Radio to learn a few additional things and get the contextualized.

Get ready: What advice would you give to the government of your country on adapting to the impacts of energy transition?
