Potential for energy poverty alleviation through an inclusive and democratic European Green Deal 2.0

The 44th and 45th editions of ICLEI’s flagship Breakfast at Sustainability’s series are organised as a set of events on the topics of inclusion, justice and democracy in the energy transition in Europe. Phasing out fossil fuels to achieve climate neutrality by 2050 offers a unique opportunity to transform our energy systems for a more socially fair and democratic EU. Diverse forms of citizen involvement and engagement in energy projects are already surging across the EU, including many energy poverty alleviation activities within communities.
