Stakeholder engagement

The importance of stakeholder engagement 

Stakeholder engagement has been critical for sharing the Distributed ReStart project’s key challenges and findings – these will be of immense value to the industry, both locally and internationally, as energy systems seek to decarbonise and decentralise. 

Stakeholder engagement has also played an important role in incorporating valuable feedback into the project. 

Knowledge and dissemination workstream  

The project’s knowledge and dissemination workstream was responsible for sharing the project’s learnings with a variety of stakeholders. These ranged from distributed energy resources (DERs) and network operators through to academics and policy makers. 

The workstream kept industry stakeholders up to date with the project’s progress via:   

• face-to-face events 
• webinars 
• podcasts 
• email campaigns 
• Social media – LinkedIn 
• press releases 
• videos 
• reports

During the Covid-19 pandemic, the workstream continued to engage with stakeholders by moving its communications channels online.
