SET-Nav partners, Charlie Wilson & Yeong Jae Kim, were invited to a policy workshop in Brussels on "Mission Innovation" - the pledge by 20 countries (including the UK) to double clean energy R&D in support of the Paris Agreement. Charlie presented new work on indicators for tracking progress in the global clean energy innovation system. SET-Nav partners, Charlie Wilson & Yeong Jae Kim, also disseminated a short consultation report answering to the Mission Innovation indicator briefing paper.
SET-Nav partner, Charlie Wilson, participated in the "Pathways to European decarbonisation: the INNOPATHS scenarios workshop", 6-8 February 2018, in Florence, organised by the H2020-funded INNOPATHS project. He gave a talk on the 2x2 scenario typology being developed by the SET-Nav consortium for exploring decentralisation vs. entrenchment, and cooperation vs. fragmentation in the EU energy innovation landscape. This typology will help shape the integrative modelling activity planned for SET-Nav.
