In our modern information societies, we not only use and welcome computers; we are highly dependent upon them. There is a downside of this kind of progress, however. Computers are not 100% reliable. They are insecure. They are vulnerable to attackers. They can either be attacked directly, to disrupt their services, or they can be abused in clever ways to do the bidding of an attacker as a dysfunctional user. Decision-makers and experts alike always struggle with the amount of interdisciplinary knowledge needed to understand the nuts and bolts of modern information societies and their relation to security, the implications of technological or political progress or the lack thereof. This holds in particular for new challenges to come. These are harder to understand and to categorize; their development is difficult to predict. To mitigate this problem and to enable more foresight, The Secure Information Society provides an interdisciplinary spotlight onto some new and unfolding aspects of the uneasy relationship between information technology and information society, to aid the dialogue not only in its current and ongoing struggle, but to anticipate the future in time and prepare perspectives for the challenges ahead.

Die nachhaltige Nutzung verfugbarer Energieressourcen, deren Moglichkeiten derzeit viel diskutiert werden, beinhaltet auch eine zukunftsfahige Hausenergieversorgung. Eine Option dafur stellen Brennstoffzellen in Minikraftwerken als Heizungsersatz dar, mit denen bei einer koordinierten Kopplung und Steuerung in sogenannten Virtuellen Kraftwerken durch bedarfsgerechte Fahrweise neben einer Grundversorgung auch Nachfragespitzen abgedeckt werden konnen.

Die vorliegende Studie zeigt Wege fur einen zukunftsfahigen Einsatz der Technologien Brennstoffzelle und Virtuelles Kraftwerk in der Hausenergieversorgung auf. Dazu werden zunachst Konkurrenztechnologien miteinander verglichen, Wettbewerbsverzerrungen aufgedeckt und Rahmenbedingungen analysiert. Darauf aufbauend werden Strategien zur Beseitigung von Innovationsbarrieren erarbeitet und Handlungsempfehlungen fur den (umwelt-, energie- und technologie-) politischen Umgang mit den neuen Technologien gegeben. Die Autorengruppe stellt u.a. Herausforderungen heraus, die sich bei der Gestaltung der Technologieforderung, der Erwirtschaftung moglicher zusatzlicher Erlose, der Vermeidung des Missbrauchs von Marktmacht und der Gestaltung der gesetzlichen Rahmenbedingungen fur den Einsatz dieser Technologien ergeben.

Die interdisziplinare Forschungsarbeit verknupft Aspekte aus Energietechnik, Technikfolgenanalyse, Politikwissenschaft, Okonomie und Rechtswissenschaft miteinander und richtet sich an Wissenschaft, Politik, Akteure in der Energiewirtschaft sowie an die interessierte Offentlichkeit.
