This instant book provides plenty of inputs to policymakers, modellers and researchers. The energy transition and its transformative drivers, faced with oppositions and inaction, are given multifaceted coverage and insights, across conceptual, empirical and policy-oriented studies and proposals. Models, scenarios, narratives, feasibility studies, experiments, pilot and demonstration projects can be improved and enhanced by cross-fertilisation with the contents of the book.

Relevant for Switzerland and abroad, this volume includes the seminal peer-reviewed PLOS Climate paper ÒTowards more impactful energy research: The salient role of social sciences and humanitiesÓ which sets five priority orientations for impactful research, developed here in five sections with a topics-specific exploration and twelve papers and presentations.

A synthesis of inputs to modelers and policymakers, underpinned by a consultative procedure, follows an analysis of policy recommendations by Swiss energy researchers.
