The accompanying research and coordination project for the energy transition and society area of the energy research program, BEWEGT for short, pursues two strategic goals: Firstly, the projects are to be brought into an exchange with each other and the visibility of the projects and their results is to be strengthened. Secondly, the aim is to increase the impact of these projects in politics and society in order to make a substantial contribution to accelerating the energy transition.
To achieve this, BEWEGT relies on attractive and innovative offers: customized formats for the exchange of knowledge network the projects and transfer the findings. Collaboration takes place in various spaces, such as meeting and work spaces, in order to identify synergies between the projects. Workshops and interactive formats support the co-creation of relevant stakeholders on the basis of continuous needs analyses and promote innovative approaches. In this way, evidence-based results are bundled, an exchange of methods is organized and policy recommendations are developed for the learning energy research program and beyond.
The innovative project pursues a systemic perspective that integrates technological and social aspects. It combines mission-oriented innovation policy with foresight methods in order to identify relevant future topics in a participatory manner. BEWEGT is divided into four work packages: Coordination and networking, synthesis and foresight, transfer and communication, and project management.
