This morning I presented at #IST25 in Lisbon! I presented work from the Horizon2020 project #ROBINSON on how technologies face varying social acceptance in Norway. Energy technologies may face opposition due to local paradoxes, but even ambivalence can be problematic @transitionsnetwork.bsky.social
