The proposed project will build on and expand the research, Canadian and international partnerships and networks, and knowledge mobilization infrastructure in the area of sustainable energy transitions and climate change policy. The major outputs of the project will include two books: 1) an edited volume on low-carbon sustainable energy transitions in the age of populism and pandemic that will bring together an interdisciplinary team of leading researchers on climate change policy and low-carbon energy system transitions; and 2) a monograph that will examine wider long-term sustainability transition challenges for Ontario in the context of populism and COVID-19.
