    “Civic Energy Informer” - Facilitating assistance for actors in civic energy through a modular digital platform
    (INFORMATIK 2021, 2021) Krebs, Antonia; Koch, Björn; Klenke, Thomas
    Although civil society is a key driver for the energy transition, civic energy initiatives remain a niche competitor within the energy market. Facilitating the active involvement of citizens and communities, and subsequently the uptake of civic energy initiatives, requires a profound source of available information on the underlying processes, benefits, and possible risks such initiatives encompass. Data collected on practical experience from over 20 diverse civic energy pilots in seven European states over the past five years have highlighted the complexity of information demand the civic energy process entails. Due to this diversity and the distinctiveness of each pilot, this paper reports on the development of the “Civic Energy Informer”, a modular digital platform that covers these diverse information demands in order to offer specific advice for various stakeholders. This presents a foundation for promoting the facilitation of civic energy initiatives by providing wellfounded insights and tools for potential adopters.

    Design of IT structures in vaguely defined application environments - Experiences from actor interaction in the blue bioeconomy
    (EnviroInfo 2023, 2023) Koch, Björn; Lohaus, Christian; Klenke, Thomas
    This contribution focuses at appropriate IT structures for innovative market segments which form an application environment that is only fundamentally defined in digitization efforts. The core feature are vague application profiles for IT structures to be set up, which players in such market segments can use internally, but especially in environmental and social interaction. For the example of the emerging blue bioeconomy, experiences in setting up a cross-location, distributed IT structure are presented, which is geared towards advising and supporting actors in the blue bioeconomy by a diverse team of experts. Key findings lie in (i) the need to integrate different dimensions of vagueness in the treatment of increasingly defined information in a three-layer model of the IT structure, (ii) the development of the IT structure in an open process that takes into account the dynamics of the market sector, and (iii) the constant training of the members of the expert team on content, routines and limitations of the IT structure in consulting of actors.
