SUMMARY:Decarb-a-nation©: Decarbonisation Challenge workshop
DESCRIPTION:Photo: Karina Lyburn \nOne country. One government. Multiple regions\, each with four key actors. Each one with conflicting priorities. What does it really take to reach net zero? \nJoin Energy Research Accelerator for this in-person serious game workshop. Step into the shoes of key players in a national-scale decarbonisation effort\, with this new business game from Heuristic. Decarb-a-nation© is an innovative\, challenging\, yet fun workshop day where participants interact with the complex journey to net zero in an immersive\, accessible way. Through the power of heuristic gameplay and discussions facilitated by energy industry experts with over 80 years of combined experience\, participants run realistic decarbonisation scenarios in a safe and relaxed environment\, using real data that has direct parallels in the real world. \nHow it works: You will work as part of a team taking on the perspectives of Households\, Industry\, Power Utilities\, Local Authorities\, or National Government. You’ll navigate conflicting priorities\, make strategic proposals\, and vote on policies\, responding to real-world energy scenarios based on nationally recognised datasets* Collaborate\, negotiate\, and compete across multiple fictional regions and experience the trade-offs\, tensions\, and interdependencies of decarbonisation – all whilst having fun! \nWhat you’ll get: \n\nFacilitated day with energy industry experts experienced in stakeholder relations\nHands-on experience of strategic decision-making\nA safe and neutral space for open dialogue\, experimentation\, and reflection\nReal data\, applicable in real world scenarios\nInsight into stakeholder dynamics and competing motivations\nAdaptable format for education\, training or stakeholder engagement\nOpportunity to network and collaborate with participants from different sectors across the ERA Partnership\nEngaging interactive and interdisciplinary event\, using your expertise and learning from each other.\n\nWho is it for? \nThis FREE to attend workshop is open to participants from universities (doctoral and post-doctoral researchers) and industry / energy sectors. Please note that places are limited to 26 participants and priority will be given to doctoral students and post-doctoral researchers affiliated to ERA partner intuitions. \nTo register your interest please complete the following booking form: Decarb-a-nation© workshop registration form – Fill out form
