Les Houches School of PhysicsSince 1951

Taking into account the issues of climate change and resource exhaustion, this session will be dedicated to a transdisciplinary effort to discuss possible ways to engage into the energy transition. We will discuss how economic models can take into account the physical world, as well as the contributions new technologies could bring to this effort. Financial mechanisms as well as public policies coherent with these goals will also be part of the discussion. We will thus analyze how physical constraints can be better taken into account to meet these oncoming challenges.
