ONLINE City Talk with Dr. Erwin van Tuijl on the Role of Installers in the Post-Industrial City
We love cities: to live in, to work in, to wander around. Or to escape during summers, when the countryside draws us to green landscapes and fresh waters. But how can we make our cities and regions sustainable for the future? How will they be climate-proof, biodiverse, just, and enjoyable for everyone to live in? Let's do some City Talk!
In this edition, join us for an insightful presentation by Dr. Erwin van Tuijl, postdoctoral researcher, as he delves into the critical role of installers in the post-industrial industry. In the evolving energy landscapes of modern cities, installer firms are the unsung heroes who install, maintain, and repair the backbone of our energy and heating infrastructures. These drivers of the urban environment are pivotal in realizing the energy transition.
Dr. van Tuijl’s research places these essential figures at the center of the discussion, exploring how digitalization, urban policies, and facilities impact their daily work. This City Talk will highlight their indispensable role in sustainable urban development and the energy transition.
