In order to promote climate change actions under the 2015 Paris agreement and after the 2011 Fukushima Nuclear disaster, we are facing the challenges of energy transition from nuclear energy and fossil fuels to stressing conservation and renewable energy resources. Energy issue is not only a technical, economical issue but a social, political and ecological issue which should be tackled in terms of energy democracy, civic engagement and consensus building. Energy transition is local, national, and global issues. In this session, case studies and sociological analysis on policies, actors and collaborations should be recommended. How have civil society and the combination of civil forces promoted energy transition from the bottom up? We are organizing this session in order to analyze “who are key players? how civil societies, nation states and big businesses can collaborate to head energy policy toward the sustainable future”.
