At the Summer Study of the European Council for an Energy Efficient Economy (eceee), which took place in France in June 2024, EnSu members Carina Zell-Ziegler, Johannes Thema and Alexander Kling gave a total of 4 presentations. The positive feedback in the discussions showed that EnSu research on the topic of energy sufficiency is relevant and can close existing research gaps. The exchange with many other conference participants from research and practice, including at a co-organized “informal session” on sufficiency, was very enriching.
The following contributions from the EnSu group were presented:
