Abstract

The social acceptance of the renewable energy sources is an important factor for the success of the energy transition. The feedback of the citizens of the local communities needs to be taken into account in the decision making procedure. The energy cooperatives, especially at the local level, have a major role and can put the society in the center of the renewable strategies. For this reason, the presentation of specific scientific data, the life cycle sustainability assessment and the dissemination of good practices are critical for the expansion of the renewables in a positive and sustainable way, by taking into account the emergence of climate crisis.
