Abstract: Based on the idea of a recent paper by Ambrosio-Gigli-Savar'e in Invent. Math. (2013), we show that flow of the $q$-Cheeger energy, called $q$-heat flow, solves the gradient flow problem of the Renyi entropy functional in the $p$-Wasserstein. For that, a further study of the $q$-heat flow is presented including a condition for its mass preservation. Under a convexity assumption on the upper gradient, which holds for all $qge2$, one gets uniqueness of the gradient flow and the two flows can be identified. Smooth solution of the $q$-heat flow are solution the parabolic q-Laplace equation, i.e. $partia{l}_t{f}_t=Delt{a}_q{f}_t.$
