Why do so many renewable projects stall?

Om kurset

Larry Susskind, a professor of urban and environmental planning at MIT, often finds himself in the role of mediator between renewable energy project developers and the communities affected. And he says there is one big thing stopping these projects in their tracks: a lack of representation of local interest. Susskind helps us understand the challenges during this last mile to renewable energy implementation, how bringing communities to the table earlier can speed success, and how universities can help mediate this process. What if it works? is a production of the MIT Energy Initiative. This episode was hosted by Rob Stoner and Kara Miller. Transcript and show notes at energy.mit.edu/podcasts
