Description
We’re excited to share a curated set of five cornerstone resources designed to support citizens, local authorities, community leaders and organisations in navigating and accelerating the energy transition.
This collection brings together practical tools, guidance and ready-to-use methods to help you design, launch and scale community‑driven climate and energy initiatives.
By exploring these resources you’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of the energy transition – from overarching policy frameworks to implementation.
You’ll find tools for:
- designing participatory and socially inclusive processes
- step‑by‑step guidance to build and strengthen energy communities
- inspiration from real‑world examples and proven engagement methods
- a clear starting point to take meaningful climate action.
This combination ensures that you not only learn about the energy transition – you can act on it.
