Attualmente si è raggiunto un consenso diffuso –  nella comunità scientifica - circa il legame esistente tra le attività umane ed i cambiamenti climatici e l’interesse per tale argomento sta crescendo anche tra il pubblico. Il dibattito in letteratura ora non riguarda più il fatto di decidere “se” agire, ma piuttosto “come” agire.
Il problema della riduzione delle emissioni antropiche di gas serra è molto complesso e non esiste una sola soluzione ottima su cui puntare. E’ un problema che solleva questioni tecnologiche, economiche, ambientali, sociali, politiche ed etiche.
La gestione della complessità e dell’intriseca incertezza dell'agire sull'ambiente difficilmente sarà risolvibile facendo affidamento solo su soluzioni tecnologiche. L’innovazione tecnologica dovrà certamente avere una ruolo importante e indispensabile, ma le soluzioni dovranno necessariamente passare anche da un coinvolgimento socialmente esteso a tutti gli stakeholder coinvolti nell'Ecosistema di KM ambientale, in particolare al pubblico dei Knowledge citizen oggi sempre più empowered, rispetto al passato, della emergente Società della conoscenza.

Il tema della gestione diffusa e distribuita della conoscenza in ambito ambientale è centrale e rappresenta una delle linee di ricerca di PKM360.

Nowadays, general consensus on the impacts of human activities on global climate change has been reached and the interest related to climate issues is growing also among the general public. The debate now focuses on the actions that need to be undertaken to avoid damages that are unacceptable from an economic, social, ethical or environmental point of view and on the policies that can lead to the achievement of such objectives.
The problem of reducing human green-house gas (GHG) emissions is very complex and there is no “silver bullet”. Indeed, it entails technological, economic, environmental, social, political, and ethical issues.

The management of the complexity of interfering with the environment and its intrinsic uncertainty goes beyond the scope of technical solutions. Technological innovation will need to play an important role, but the solutions will necessarily have to involve a strong participation of society, and in particular of the knowledge citizen that is now – in the Knowledge Society – more empowered.
In particular, the electric power sector is one of the most relevant sources of carbon emissions and due to its peculiar characteristics - and to the fact that the non-electric energy sector is still far from finding viable solutions to drastically reduce its carbon emissions - will have to reach high levels of decarbonisation already from the first decades of the century.

Indeed, the electric power sector is interesting because:

- it is one of the most relevant sources of carbon emissions;
- electricity is becoming more and more important for the contemporary society, with its demand growing at a very high rate;
- it is characterised by long term investments that necessarily shape future scenarios;
- low carbon technologies - that can help target the problem of reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions – have already been identified;
- emission reductions can be achieved by modernizing the electric power system.

The current discussion about new technological options that may be added to the optimal mitigation portfolio, indeed, includes important innovations in the distribution system and focuses on Smart-Grids that may increase the exploitation of renewable sources. These innovations entail a re-engineering of the power systems towards a more evolved structure that will require a more complex management capable of dealing with new and diffuse production sources and even possible changes in consumer involvement.
Under the “Smart Grid” denomination many different grid enhancements are included and all of these entail the inclusion of I&CT into the management of the power system.
As it has already emerged from the study of other disciplines, the introduction of I&CT can create important unprecedented effects that will be evaluated in this study.
