    Building a resilient energy transition for Switzerland: how do we get there?

    The RECIPE consortium brought together over 60 Swiss stakeholders at ETH Zürich for its first workshop. The workshop marked an important step toward building participatory research and will contribute to shape RECIPE’s way forward.

    Together, we reflected on the risks and challenges of the energy transition, and explored relevant hazards, vulnerabilities, criticalities, and potential measures from multiple perspectives.

    A decision has been made on the call for proposals “Critical Infrastructures, Climate Change, and Resilience of the Swiss Energy System”: The RECIPE consortium led by ETH Zurich will receive funding.

    The four participating universities and three private sector partners of the RECIPE (Resilient Infrastructure for the Swiss Energy Transition) consortium will analyse the hazards posed to the Swiss energy infrastructure by the transition of the energy system and climate change, and the associated risks to the economy, society, vital resources, and the ecosystem. For the identified risks and vulnerabilities, the consortium will propose appropriate measures to increase resilience. Finally, RECIPE will provide actionable recommendations to stakeholders based on the project analyses and findings.
