Centre for Climate and Energy Transformation (CET)

At CET we aim to produce actionable knowledge that can inform policy and practice about how to achieve rapid, just and deep transformation of society to mitigate climate change.

About the research centre

CET is an interdisciplinary research hub working on climate and energy transformation. The centre was launched in 2017 and is located within the Faculty of Social Sciences at ��ϳԹ��Դ. CET is a collaboration between ��ϳԹ��Դ, NORCE and the Norwegian School of Economics (NHH).

CET conducts research on how climate change and transformations are experienced, communicated and acted upon by individuals, communities, policymakers and organisations. Some of our research themes include: Urban development and planning, energy transitions, justice and democracy, climate change and the media, and public perceptions of climate change

The centre has core funding from the Ministry of Education and Research and generates impactful research through a variety of externally funded projects.

We organise the Beyond Oil conference, network events and a range of seminars.

Actionable Knowledge for Transformation

Climate change is one of the greatest threats to life on our planet. Despite a growing focus on the problem, modern society is not currently on a path towards meeting the commitments of the Paris Agreement to limit warming to 1,5 degrees.

There is substantial knowledge concerning the behavioural changes, policies, energy infrastructures and technologies required to tackle climate change. Now is the time to prioritize action that sets fundamental change in motion.

At the Centre for Climate and Energy Transformation (CET), we think of such change as sustainability transformation. This is a deliberate process that alters the political, cultural, economic, and social characteristics of society in a way that makes us more sustainable. Transformation must be driven by a commitment to democracy and justice. As researchers, this means we must have an intentional approach to what we conduct research on, how we do that research and how we create impact.

Our graduates are making significant contributions in fields related to climate and sustainability, reflecting the centre's commitment to producing actionable knowledge.

CET Affiliation

Are you a researcher at ��ϳԹ��Դ, NORCE or NHH working on climate and energy transformation? Becoming a CET Affiliate opens up networking and funding opportunities as well as being part of an interdisciplinary and dynamic research environment.

To fully understand the complexities of climate change we need the competence of multiple disciplines and different perspectives. Affiliates are an active part of the network, and are invited to seminars, workshops, and retreats. We believe that interdisciplinary collaboration makes it easier to contribute to societal impact. Our aim is to have members who we can engage with in discussions to strengthen our research, collaborate with in research proposals, as well as help us to improve our research questions and gain knowledge that is of use to society.

N.B. Please note that it is a requirement to be employed at one of our partner institutions (��ϳԹ��Դ, NORCE or NHH) to be eligible for CET affiliation.
