With the energy crisis triggered by the attacks on the oil-rich nation of Iran, a rapid energy transition has come more into focus. But how quickly can we really switch entirely to wind and solar energy? What contribution can Vienna make? And how can we foster public acceptance of the energy transition?

A conversation with socioeconomist Therese Guttmann and Ernst Bach, who, through Sozialbau AG, has already converted 7,000 gas water heaters in Vienna.

Host: Katharina Kropshofer
