Transformer Project

Transformer is a EU-funded Horizon Europe project piloting Transition Super Labs in 4 European Regions. The TRANSFORMER project is applying the Transition Super-Lab (TSL) approach to “large territorial initiatives for real-life management of the transition from fossil-fuel-based to zero-carbon local economies”. This approach considers entire regions as living laboratories, i.e. Super-Labs, in which new ways of transformation towards a climate-neutral future can be developed, tested and implemented. Four real-life Transition Super-Labs (TLS) are piloted in European regions with an especially difficult transition challenge ahead – the Ruhr Area (Germany), Emilia Romagna (Italy), Lower Silesia (Poland) and Western Macedonia (Greece) while addressing five key sectors: Mobility, Circular Economy, Energy, Agriculture & Food Production, and Industry
