Szanowni Państwo,

serdecznie zapraszamy na warsztaty “Budowanie wspólnot energetycznych wspierających zrównoważoną transformację energetyczną“. Warsztaty są częścią europejskiego projektu Horyzont 2020 “EC2 – Energy Citizenship and Energy Communities for a Sustainable Energy Transition”. Celem EC2 jest znalezienie odpowiedzi na pytanie, w jaki sposób bierni dotąd konsumenci energii mogą stać się zaangażowanymi obywatelami energetycznymi. Wyniki projektu będą wspierać decydentów i praktyków w promowaniu zrównoważonego, integracyjnego i sprawiedliwego przejścia do społeczeństwa niskoemisyjnego – z obywatelami w roli głównej.

Warsztaty te będą okazją do przekształcenia pomysłów i doświadczeń w możliwe do zastosowania wyniki i zalecenia, które będą informować EC2 i wspierać transformację energetyczną.

ABOUT PROJECT:

 
“Through empirical research, theoretical analysis and co-creation activities with diverse stakeholders the project will:
 
  • Provide evidence-based tools and a digital training progam to scale-up energy citizenship and energy communities
  • Develop actionable policy recommendations and briefs for policymakers by connecting project findings to policy and practice
  • Supply tested tools to support energy citizenship and energy communities
  • Foster inclusivity of energy citizenship and energy communities
  • Deepen our understanding of energy citizenship and how to empower citizens to become energy citizens
  • Identify legal and economic conditions supporting or hindering energy citizenship
  • Understand how energy citizenship shapes and influences the energy sector, the energy transition, and the achievment of EU decarbonisation goals
 
The project will develop a clear conceptualisation of energy citizenship, and gather actionable insights into the optimal conditions for it to flourish. It places a special focus on the role of energy communities and how their set-up can help – or hinder – the creation of energy citizens.
The insights gained will lead to policies, tools and practices that will support the sustainable, just, inclusive transition to a low-carbon society with citizens at the centre.”
 
 

PROJECT RESULTS:

 

"Energy Citizenship as a Viable Concept: An Interdisciplinary Understanding to Unfold the Potential of Legal, Economic, and Psychological Perspectives on the Citizenship-Based Energy Transition."

The role of citizens in the energy transformation was analyzed in the report alongside many other actors, such as large energy companies, other economic entities, local governments and the state. The consequence of placing citizens at the center of the energy transformation must be a change in legal regulations, the creation of financial tools and a system of access to information for citizens. The state can play a key role here. Thanks to renewable civic energy, even deeper decentralization of energy production will take place and the subjectivity and agency of citizens will increase. The prepared report is the basis for the preparation of a series of scientific publications in European specialist journals. Free download here:
