Together, Let’s Dare the Transition! 

As part of the European project LIFE_LETsGO4Climate, this citizen-driven initiative dedicated to energy transition will be structured into four workshops.

The goal? To empower every citizen with the knowledge and tools to take action at the local level.

Workshop Program:

  • đź“Ś Workshop 1 – “Our Territory” ➡ Introduction to the objectives and challenges of the initiative.
  • đź“Ś Workshop 2 – “From Awareness to Action” ➡ Sharing a territorial diagnosis and defining collective actions to implement.
  • đź“Ś Workshop 3 – “Transition in Action” ➡ Visiting a local renewable energy production site.
  • đź“Ś Workshop 4 – “Our Transition” ➡ Collective voting to select four concrete projects (72 in total across all territories) and brainstorming on their implementation.

Joining Your Local Citizens’ Panel: How, Why, and Where to Start?

Being part of your local citizens’ panel means participating in four evening workshops (from 6:00 PM to 8:30 PM, see dates below) within a group of 100 participants.1.  

This allows you to access reliable information about energy, the energy transition, and what exists in your territory. It also provides the opportunity to meet other residents who want to get involved at the local level and to engage in working groups on topics of particular interest: consuming less, producing local renewable energy, energy efficiency…

At the end of these four workshops, each involved member will have the opportunity to join a regional network of engaged actors, who develop collective projects in their territory and share their experiences. Everyone will receive support in developing their project, with access to online training, webinars, MOOCs, and useful documentation.

Thus, the six territories, the Region, ADEME, Énergie Partagée, GRDF, and ENEDIS are also committed to supporting the collectives formed through the workshops and assisting them as best as possible in their initiatives.

Finally, this is an opportunity to take part in a unique experiment in Europe and be a pioneer in the citizen-led energy transition in your area.

Now it’s your turn! Registrations are open from June 15 to September 30, via the registration form.

As a reminder, co-financed by the European Union, this project has a dual objective:

Increasing renewable energy production in the pilot territories.

Reducing collective and individual energy consumption through awareness and actions promoting energy efficiency.
