DECENT – Socio-technical modularity and the decentralization of infrastructure
Cities have long relied on centralised systems for providing essential services such as electricity, water and transport. These large networks often struggle to meet social, economic and environmental needs. Around the world, decentralised solutions are showing their benefits through micro-grids, small-scale wastewater treatment, multi-modal transport and short food chains. The ERC-funded DECENT project aims to explore how these solutions can take root and grow. Specifically, it will examine how decentralisation works across different sectors and places, and what factors mediate their success. The goal is to help cities become more resilient and sustainable, while building infrastructures that better serve people and the environment.
