Characterizing the Theory of Energy Transition in Luxembourg, Part Two—On Energy Enthusiasts’ Viewpoints

Abstract

The energy transition is a certain phenomenon in the future of the world. However, exploring the existing literature suggests that public considerations have not been analyzed in Luxembourg yet. A widespread move from the conventional energy system based on fossil fuels into a new energy system with renewable energy could not occur successfully without the strong support of the public. Characterizing a theory of transition was intended to fill in the gap of knowledge of the field. To ground the built theory, it is necessary to collect as much empirical data as possible. The applied methodology to collect data was to run a survey. Public groups in a variety of job statuses were invited to take part in the survey. The employed method to analyze the data was a combination of qualitative analysis with the pragmatic theory of truth. Overall, the number of collected responses reached 96. Notably, people did not imagine the future differently. They showed a lack of optimism in the future. The findings confirm that the necessity of energy transition is fairly far from people’s considerations. It is a big concern that the authors would like to highlight.

Pelibatan Pemuda Dalam Memperkuat Komunikasi Kebijakan Transisi Energi Dan Presidensi G-20

“…Transisi Energi merupakan perpindahan luas dari sistem energi konvensional berbasis bahan bakar fosil ke sistem energi baru dengan energi terbarukan. Transisi energi yang berhasil adalah yang mendapat dukungan yang kuat dari publik (Arababadi et al, 2021).…”

Theoretical Considerations about Energy Transition in Luxembourg

“…In the second publication, it was theorized that people are not ready to suffer changes for the purposes of energy transition [9]. The importance of the built theories can be found regarding the concept of the theory of truth.…”

A Longitudinal Study on the History of Energy Transition and Its Implications on Global Decarbonization

“…It concludes that achieving this goal will require major technological breakthroughs, half of which are not yet available today . There are also numerous publications on the nexus between energy transition and economic growth. − Some researchers find a positive correlation between energy transition and economic growth in well-to-do economies, − while others find a negative correlation in poorer economies. , Other researchers have addressed the often-neglected social and cultural aspects of energy transition. − However, issues such as lifestyle change, public acceptance of new energy systems, and a just transition are difficult to quantify. New theories have been proposed to bridge this gap. , An economy’s access to domestic and imported energy resources can be a limiting factor in its energy transition.…”
