Network H+C Webinar - Attitudes to heat disruption and the development of cooling networks

These monthly webinars seek to explore the challenges and strategies for the decarbonisation of heating and cooling. Our April webinar features speakers from national and international academia researching the decarbonisation of our heating system. 

We are delighted to welcome speakers:

Dr Gareth Thomas, Cardiff University. Gareth is Research Associate in the School of Psychology at Cardiff University - his research background is in policy, science and technology studies specialising in the social acceptability of socio-technical transitions, particularly in the field of energy. Recent research has examined issues of justice, vulnerability and social acceptability relating to transitions towards more flexible energy systems, and the ways identities and experiences rooted in place shape citizens’ concerns and desires for transitions towards a low carbon economy. Gareth will discuss consumer attitudes to disruptions related to low carbon heat infrastructure.
