Citizens stop attending participation meetings dominated by the loudest voice in the village. Tenants stop lodging complaints when they no longer believe anyone is listening. The energy transition assumes a dialogue that, in many places, has already b…

We often refer to the energy transition in terms of the now-familiar “4Ds”: decarbonisation, decentralisation, digitalisation, and democratisation.

It’s something everyone agrees with in principle, but few take seriously in practice. And yet, that fourth “D” is precisely what determines whether the transition will be experienced as an opportunity, or just another top-down transformation that bypasses the people it’s meant to serve.
