Macro-Energy Systems: Toward a New Discipline - Livestream

A proposal published in Joule for a new discipline called Macro-Energy Systems (MES) focused on studying the large-scale, systems-level, long-term aspects of sustainable energy planning. The article sparked interest from a wide range of researchers and students and they recently participated in a virtual workshop where they discussed ‘Why do we need this new discipline?,’ ‘What are the frontiers of MES research currently?,’ ‘What are major critiques of MES work and how have we or might we respond to them?’ and ‘What are the skills students need to learn to be successful in MES?.’ At this energy seminar, organizers of the workshop will share their key findings and next steps for MES.
