research project at dinâmia'cet-Iscte
Sus2Trans - Sustainable Transformative Transitions - Reconcile the Acceleration of Low Carbon Transitions with System Transformations. The project investigates the types of decarbonization strategies that comply with the Paris Agreement, whose implementation requires the transformation of several sectors besides energy, such as mobility, construction, agri-food and industry.
