Abstract
This report presents the results of the Futures Clinique on Energy Futures 2030, conducted in December 2012
to assist in preparations for the new sustainable energy research programme for the Academy of Finland. The
aim of the Futures Clinique was to envision the energy system for future Finland. The working reached towards
2030, and was framed by the four generic scenarios as proposed by Jim Dator – Continued Growth,
Collapse, Disciplined Society, and Transformation. The concepts of Neo-Growth, Kondratieff’s Sixth Wave,
and The Third Industrial Revolution, were applied to describe the broad societal change.
The results of the Futures Clinique envisioned a society of distributed energy of diverse energy solutions,
local production and consumption, local and responsible lifestyles, bottom-up power relations and systemssensitive
pervasive sustainability.
