Navigating Systemic Risks in Low-Carbon Energy Transitions in an Era of Global Polycrisis

25

The authors discuss factors influencing the stability and resilience of low-carbon energy transitions over extended time-frames, emphasising that while these transitions are essential for global sustainability, they are also vulnerable to systemic risks that could exacerbate the polycrisis. They highlight the importance of long-term strategic planning, interdisciplinary research, and inclusive decision-making to ensure that successful low-carbon transitions not only mitigate global risks but also offer solutions for broader challenges in an increasingly interconnected world.
