Project GRETA

Are you ready to take the next step in your relationship with energy? ⚡ In an #energycommunity you can create cheaper and cleaner energy together with your neighbours. Learn more about energy communities and what you can do to establish one: projectgreta.eu

As our project ends, we want to thank our collaborators for being a part of our journey! 🙏 To stay tuned for energy related research, follow our still continuing sibling projects @EC2_energy, @ENCLUDEproject, @EnergyPROSPECTS, @DIALOGUESh2020, @TRANSFORMER_EU & @SSHCentreEU!

A new Horizon project @ReschoolEnergy has just started! RESCHOOL focuses on improving the way #energycommunities operate by enhancing the technology and behaviour of their users. Check them out and follow here!

All good things must come to an end– and so must Project GRETA. So what have we learned studying #energycitizenship? In our last blog post, we share some of our most important 💡 results, 🛠️ tools and 👍 recommendations! Read more here: projectgreta.eu/greta-project-…

Associate professor @annika_wolff, the director of the project GRETA, presents encouraging examples in her blog post on how the transition has already created good energy between citizens across Europe 👇 (5/5) projectgreta.eu/op-ed-almost-a…

Good news is that almost all Europeans can embrace energy-saving practices and sustainable energy use, if provided with support and energy information in a way that addresses individuals’ and communities’ unique needs, research shows. (4/5)

The #energytransition risks becoming one more divisive issue European societies. However, this development is not inevitable. A short 🧵 on how to make the green transition inclusive and cohesive 👇 (1/5)

What are Community Transition Pathways, and why are they such an effective tool for helping energy citizens envision their role in the #energytransition? Read about the visionary and trust-building tool for #energycommunities here: projectgreta.eu/getting-energy…

📌 This helps policymakers offer citizens more audience-specific, visualized energy information that empowers diverse groups of people to become more engaged in sustainable energy practices! (4/5)

Understanding our highly intricate energy systems helps citizens make informed decisions about their energy usage 💡 But how can local policymakers create tailored #energyinformation that addresses individuals' and communities' unique needs? (1/5) #energydata #energytransition

📌 GRETA recommends policymakers to establish a coherent policy framework that integrates multiple types of proximity to facilitate #energycitizenship in its various forms. (2/3)

How can different types of proximity drive citizens' #energytransition actions? And how should policymakers consider them in energy #policy? Proximity can take many forms: it can be spatial, social, economic, technological or policy based. (1/3)
