The Great Forum for Energy Communities in Western Macedonia
Citizen-based Energy Communities are an important instrument to establish more renewable power at the local level and alleviate energy poverty in societies. Yet, many Energy Communities in Southeastern Europe still face numerous challenges. The main issues that need to be tackled remain the lack of proper legislation on creating and running energy communities and their crowdfunding.
