Learning Lab 2
De Just Prepare Learning Labs hebben tot doel kennis- en praktijkpartners samen te brengen om onderzoek te bespreken, ervaringen te delen en lokale oplossingen te bedenken voor energietransitie in wijken. Het tweede Learning Lab focuste op duurzame lokale samenwerking en het bestendigen van energietransitie-initiatieven in wijken. Deze Labs dienen als platform om wetenschappelijke en praktijkkennis over wijkgerichte energietransitie te delen.

Justifying Amsterdam's Transition Vision for Heat: Supporting affordability and cooperation within Hispanic communities in the Bijlmer
!This research was not conducted for Energy Lab Southeast, but thematically links to the Energy Lab!
The energy transition has significant social and economic implications for residents, particularly those in marginalized communities. Angelica Franciso conducted research to shed light on the impact of planning policies on non-Dutch communities and explore ways to incorporate community-based knowledge into planning practices for a more inclusive energy transition.
In her research, Angelica focuses on the Bijler, looking into existing interventions that support affordability, and cooperation and coordination with neighbourhoods within Hispanic communities. The central question guiding her research is: ‘To what extent does Amsterdam’s transition vision for heat support affordability and cooperation with neighbourhoods within Hispanic communities in the Bijlmer?’ The main question of her research is: ‘To what extent does Amsterdam’s transition vision for heat support affordability and cooperation with neighbourhoods within Hispanic communities in the Bijlmer?’
Besides her thesis, Angelica has also written a policy brief (English & Dutch). Both are attached.Source: Universiteit van Amsterdam

How the Quick-fix Brigade frames energy poverty in Amsterdam South East
!This research was not conducted for Energy Lab Southeast, but thematically links to the Energy Lab!
Due to growing energy costs in the Netherlands, energy poverty has risen. Key factors contributing to energy poverty are affordability, house efficiency and participation in the energy transition. To address energy poverty in Amsterdam South East, the Quick-fix Brigade within the ‘Groene Hub’, offers energy-saving measures for residents. This BA thesis investigates: ‘How does the Quick-fix Brigade frame energy justice for people that experience energy poverty in Amsterdam South East?’. The relevance of this question lies in understanding how the Quick-fix Brigades frame energy justice for people that experience energy poverty in Amsterdam South East as well as adding on to the literature on energy poverty and energy justice in the Netherlands.

The Renovation Wave: An opportunity to tackle energy poverty?
In the wake of tackling energy poverty by its roots and protecting vulnerable households, the European Commission is keen to use renovation, also referred to as retrofitting, as a lever to address climate change, energy poverty, and the access to healthy houses by aiming to renovate 35 million inefficient buildings by 2030, with the so-called Renovation Wave. This strategy aims to reduce energy bills by renovating buildings while also creating many additional green jobs in the construction sector and improving residents’ quality of life, health, and well-being.
Nonetheless, recent research has shown that renovation programs have failed to address energy poverty as climate and social policy suffer from fragmented jurisdictions lacking an intersectoral integration between renovation and social policies while neglecting vulnerable groups such as low-income households and disabled persons at the city level. As a response, various scholars have called for an explicit consideration of equity in the European renovation policy. Using a Case-Study Mixed-Methods approach, this research suggests exploring ways to identify vulnerable groups and include equity into renovation policy at the city level. These results will support policymakers to include equity in the current distribution of renovation resources to address energy poverty.
