FILMS & PHOTOS
Energy systems are all around us – but largely ‘invisible’. Underground gas and electricity lines; pipes and wires behind walls and increasingly ‘waves’ and ‘clouds’ that keep us connected 24/7.
Our photos and films aim to ‘show and tell’ how energy is produced – and gets delivered to where we need it.
Roll-over the images for some startling facts and figures.

Connecting people with energy and ideas is what we’re all about. Come along for film screenings or
participate in on of our data collection projects.
TESTIMONIALS
I’m keen to understand how people use visual information and how we can change behaviour through visual content.
My interests lie in how urban policy can support or discriminate against disadvantaged communities.
My research focuses on energy systems from social science perspectives, from technical planning and technical diffusion/adoption to governance and energy communities.
I’m interested in people’s lived experience of energy in their homes and society more broadly.
I’m exploring diverse ideas about urban democracy in the context of clean energy transitions.
My work investigates how people engage with energy in non-residential buildings, with a focus on environmental aspects.
How people use energy for transportation and urban sustainability are my main areas of interest
CONNECTING PEOPLE WITH ENERGY!
With the goal of engaging people in debates and decisions about energy, the project taps into oral history techniques while taking people ‘inside’ energy systems to see how they work.
Walking with energy is led by a dynamic team from very different disciplines: social sciences, architecture, psychology, urban planning and environmental economics. Their shared interest lies in better understanding what people know about energy and what energy behaviours they might change if they knew more.
BLOGS & MORE
To demonstrate how lived experiences contribute to research that can support a cleaner energy future, WWE offers Blogs that summarise academic research, Oral Histories that highlight personal stories, and Outputs geared towards reseachers, policy makers and other actors.
BLOGS
While academic papers can be rather dry and detailed, WWE does exciting work! Here, we highlight key findings in ways that can support policy decisions, advocacy and activism.

ORAL HISTORIES
Understanding how people acquire and use energy is central to WWE’s research. We’re grateful to people who have given us permission to share their energy stories.
OUTPUTS
For those wanting to access our academic papers and publications, this area provides short summaries and relevant links.
