Transition scenario

Imagine you are playing with building blocks and you want to build a tall tower. You first start by putting one block on top of another until you have a tall tower. This is like a transition scenario.

In the same way, a transition scenario is a plan to move from one situation to another. It is like building a bridge between two points. For example, when we grow up, we leave our kindergarten and join school. This is a transition scenario from one phase of our lives to another.

Similarly, when a country transitions from using fossil fuels for energy to renewable sources, like solar or wind, it requires a detailed plan. The government will make a strategy to build the necessary infrastructure, such as solar panels and wind turbines. In this way, the country can transition smoothly, like building blocks or building a bridge, from one energy source to another.

A transition scenario is essentially a roadmap for change that helps people move towards a new way of doing things. By planning carefully, we can ensure that we make a successful transition without any significant negative consequences.
