Energy Transition: The El Dorado of Urban-Rural Relationships? The Case of Metropolitan and Upland TEPOS

Abstract

This article is the result of action research conducted by the Grenoble Alpes University's PACTE laboratory and the Transitions consulting firm that manages TEPOS in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. The aim of this action research is to qualify the relations between the urban and rural territories within the framework of the TEPOS process and to come up with criteria that can be used to analyse these relations. It was the subject of a student workshop that was also supported by the LabEx ITEM (Innovation and Mountain Territories).
