What is A Community Energy Project?
Community energy is what we stand for: citizen owned renewable energy projects that democratize our energy system. Together with the Malta Cooperative Federation and with the support of REScoop.eu, we are working on the creation of the first Renewable Energy Community in Malta. Such initiatives are essential in the transition to renewable energy and the creation of a democratic and decentralized energy system.
