#ConsumerDebates | Energy communities: How can we better protect consumers?

2 February 2023 | 09.45-11.00 CET | online via Zoom

With rapidly rising energy prices and a desire to move away from Russian fossil fuels, interest in energy communities has been increasing across Europe, as more and more consumers want to take their energy into their own hands through citizen-driven energy generation projects.

With this rise in popularity, BEUC (the European Consumer Organisation), has conducted research into how consumer rights might be impacted by entering into various forms of energy community.

Join us on 2 February 2023 in the latest of our series of #ConsumerDebates events to:
