[EN] What do we mean when we talk about energy citizenship?

10 tentative types of citizen involvement in the energy transition

Citizen participation and acceptability of the energy transition will determine the success of the European Green Deal.

This second synthesis brief presents 10 tentative types of energy citizenship that will be further refined along the course of the project.
