The global transition to a renewable energy system requires engagement from all parts of society. Innovative solutions to climate change require not only constructing the new, but also retrofitting what exists, including adapting existing buildings and climate proofing existing infrastructures. The workshop supported by this grant aims to gather and extend work at the intersection of maintenance and repair studies with environmental justice to examine the need for infrastructure retrofitting. By bringing together researchers from the fields of science and technology studies (STS), human computer interaction (HCI), urban studies, indigenous studies, and environmental engineering with diverse members of maintenance and repair communities, energy transition initiatives can excavate, recover, and reclaim the retrofitting practices and social histories that center repair as a life-sustaining practice and an everyday form of sustainability. This examination will begin by centering equity as an orienting approach to engineering not only a new physical relationship to the environment, but also a new social relationship to energy transition.The workshop targets to make three central contributions to research on energy justice and sustainable design. First, disparate social science and environmental engineering conversations on maintenance and repair will be connected to inform cross-disciplinary approaches to emissions mitigation. Second, a broadened understanding of the roles and effects of infrastructural retrofitting within the context of ongoing renewable energy transition projects will be emphasized. Third, the range of values, skill sets, and practices embedded in new and emerging forms of community-driven adaptation around energy infrastructure will be featured. The workshop seeks to locate retrofitting concerns at the core of energy transition thinking, practice, and development.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

全球向可再生能源系统的过渡需要社会各方的参与。气候变化的创新解决方案不仅需要建造新的，而且需要对现有的进行改造，包括改造现有的建筑和使现有的基础设施不受气候影响。由这笔赠款资助的讲习班旨在收集和扩大维护和维修研究与环境正义相结合的工作，以审查基础设施翻新的必要性。通过将科学技术研究(STS)、人机交互(HCI)、城市研究、土著研究和环境工程领域的研究人员与维护和维修社区的不同成员聚集在一起，能源过渡计划可以挖掘、恢复和回收以维修为中心的翻新实践和社会历史，将其作为一种维持生命的实践和可持续发展的日常形式。这一考试将以公平为中心，以此为导向，不仅设计一种与环境的新物理关系，而且还设计一种新的能源转型的社会关系。研讨会的目标是对能源公平和可持续设计的研究做出三项核心贡献。首先，关于维护和维修的不同的社会科学和环境工程对话将被连接起来，为减排提供跨学科的方法。第二，将强调更广泛地了解基础设施改造在正在进行的可再生能源过渡项目中的作用和影响。第三，围绕能源基础设施的新的和新兴的社区驱动适应形式中嵌入的价值观、技能集和实践的范围将被展示。研讨会寻求将改装问题定位于能源转换思维、实践和发展的核心。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
