ExcellentThe design must play a central role in the energy transition because energy is political, invisible, and the central driving force of society. This publication explores the transformation of the energy sector from a design perspective, focusing on renewable energy products, solar houses, wind turbines, intelligent mobility concepts, and self-sufficient cities. It highlights the global thirst for energy and asks how design can contribute to reducing energy consumption and making greater use of renewable energies.

Energy, the lifeblood that propels our society forward, transcends the realm of politics and becomes an invisible force shaping our world. Yet, it is within the intricate design of buildings, infrastructure, and the products that harness, distribute, and utilize energy that we find the key to unlocking a sustainable future. As we face the urgent need for a transformative energy transition, design emerges as a vital catalyst. This publication, in conjunction with the exhibition "Transform! Designing the Future of Energy," delves into the profound and radical transformation underway in the energy sector, offering a design-centric lens. From the creation of renewable energy-harvesting products to the design of solar houses and wind turbines, from innovative mobility concepts to envisioning self-sufficient cities, we explore the boundless possibilities of design in shaping our energy landscape.
We shed light on the global demand for energy, raising critical questions about how design can contribute to maximizing the use of renewable energies and minimizing our energy consumption. Through insightful essays, interviews, and visual representations, this publication serves as a platform for designers, policymakers, and stakeholders to engage in meaningful discussions and explore innovative solutions that will pave the way for a greener, more sustainable future.
