Description
The LIFE_LETsGO4Climate project brings together 12 partners to accelerate the energy transition in the Centre-Val de Loire Region, by encouraging citizens to take ownership of the energy transition with the long term objective of creating energy communities.
This four-year project has two main goals : reducing collective and individual energy consumption by 1.6% through awareness-raising and actions to promote energy sobriety, as well as to increase the production of renewable energy by 14% on pilot sites. The project relies heavily on the local level: mobilizing and supporting citizens’ actions, experimenting and deploying best practices related to energy sobriety and the development of renewable energies.
In the context of the current geopolitical situation, energy market realities, and the REPowerEU plan, the LIFE_LETsGO4Climate project participates in accelerating the european clean energy transition. Energy communities represent the opportunity for citizens, local authorities and small enterprises to get directly involved into energy initiatives.
But how does that work in practice? How can local authorities promote and support the emergence of citizen initiatives?
REScoop.eu, Energy Cities and the Centre Val-de-Loire Region are inviting all involved stakeholders to a roundtable session on citizen engagement. Come and share your experience on how to engage a diverse audience into energy projects!
The event will be participatory and will entail exchange of experience on favouring the emergence of citizen initiatives in a given territory, reaching out to citizens and maintaining their commitment; accompanying citizens in the creation of a fruitful energy project.
