In order to control carbon emissions, it is essential that we have low-carbon lives in both the developed and the developing world. In Ireland there are hundreds of researchers working on a sustainable energy future. The Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) has mapped this research and the results are available on http://research.seai.ie.
Within the foundation's climate justice database we are focused on sustainable energy research which is applicable to people living in developing countries with limited or no access to electricity and / or reliance on unsafe and dirty energy sources (such as kerosene, coal and manure). As such the emphasis is on small to medium scale affordable and appropriate energy solutions, many of which are off grid and suited to a variety of urban and rural contexts.
Researchers who feel their research falls into this category have been put into the database as potential Climate Justice Projects in the Equitable Low Carbon Development category. Some examples of these projects:
