Renewable Energy
The transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy is one of the great technological and social transformations of our time. Solar, wind and other renewable sources are changing how electricity can be generated, while electrification, storage, efficiency and new forms of infrastructure are reshaping what a low-carbon energy system can become.
Seeing the larger connections
For Whole Life Times, however, the question is larger than substituting one energy source for another. Energy choices are connected with cities, transport, economics, equity, land, materials, ecosystems and patterns of consumption. This page will gather those relationships while following the rapidly evolving possibilities of renewable energy.
As this part of the Whole Life Times website develops, the page will connect relevant magazine articles, historical archive material, WLT Dialogues, books, research and related subjects. In that way it can grow from an introductory pathway into a richer and increasingly interconnected field of knowledge.
What will gather here
WLT Articles
Current and recent Whole Life Times articles directly concerned with renewable energy and its wider connections.
From the Archive
Earlier WLT articles will be added as the historical print collection is scanned, recovered and classified.
WLT Dialogues
Relevant conversations with researchers, practitioners, thinkers and change-makers will progressively be connected here.
