Wir alle brauchen Energie, um unseren Lebensalltag zu bestreiten. Ob zum Heizen oder Kochen – Energie ist ein Grundbedürfnis, das gedeckt werden muss. Wir fordern eine demokratische Energieversorgung: weg von Spekulation und Profitmaximierung, hin zu Versorgungssicherheit, Leistbarkeit und Klimagerechtigkeit.

What if energy production and consumption were guided by the principles of democracy and community empowerment? Around the world, energy communities are redefining how we think about power—both literally and figuratively.

This session, featuring a Rowan Mataram from the Transnational Institute, will dive into inspiring stories and practical lessons from these grassroots movements, offering insights into how energy can be organized differently to promote equity and sustainability.
