European Energy Communities Forum
13-15 May 2024
Building blocks of energy democracy
Energy communities crafting connections and breaking barriers for a sustainable future
This year’s European Energy Communities Forum takes us to Prague, capital of the Czech Republic. Inspired by the cities’ famous Charles Bridge, connecting East and West, and its rich history of crafts and inventions, we’ll explore energy communities as catalysts for change and as a bridging factor between people of different backgrounds and communities. Against growing polarisation and climate and energy injustices, collective, democratically governed local projects can ignite new hope and trust in each other and a sustainable future.
Bringing together energy communities from across Europe in a three day event full of workshops, exchanges and interactive sessions, we’ll strengthen our efforts to transform the rules of the energy game by offering an alternative to one winner taking it all. This means helping citizens who might still be struggling to get their projects off the ground, offering insights and support for effectively advocating for stronger policy recognition and enabling frameworks, but also diving deeper into how the community energy movement can become more inclusive towards people who have remained underrepresented in climate and energy decision making.
Join us in Prague, join us in building together a community-led energy future!
