SURE is a research project sponsored by the Swiss Federal Office of Energy’s “SWEET” programme (Call 1-2020). How to reconcile resilience and sustainability criteria with the main goals of the Swiss energy sector transformation? This is the guiding question of SWEET-SURE – a research project which builds on the expertise of ten research partners and a stakeholder forum with major representatives from the Swiss energy sector. The project SURE spans over six years until 2027 and can be characterised along the following three main lines: 1. The energy transition from different perspectives 2. Novel interdisciplinary analysis framework 3.
