Working Together for a Better World

2. Introduction

Energy communities are local initiatives that can help everyone engage with the digital energy transition. In this week of the course, we take a closer look at what energy communities are and what their role is within the European digital energy transition.  

We look at why you might want to get involved and join an energy community. You might want to save money, are interested in connecting with others interested in the same topics or be an energy prosumer (e.g. be both a consumer and producer of energy).  Within your profession, you might work directly with energy communities or be interested in engaging with their membership as part of your outreach activities.
