Energy Futures — discussions toward a fossil free future
The way we produce, organize, and consume energy must change if we are to address the climate crisis. This webinar series, which is co-funded by the European Union, will explore two critical perspectives on the future of energy: the promise and pitfalls of hydrogen, and the power of community-led energy solutions. Register below to join the conversation.
Webinar 1: Can Hydrogen Deliver a Just Energy Transition?
12.02.2025 6 pm (CET)
Hydrogen is often hailed as a cornerstone of the green energy revolution, but is it truly equitable? This session will explore the infrastructure, climate, and social implications of a hydrogen-based energy future. What will the extensive use of hydrogen mean for climate goals, workers' rights, and global equity? And who holds the power to shape the transition of the energy economy?
Join Jakob Rammer and Elena Gerebizza as they share their expertise and engage in a thought-provoking discussion about hydrogen’s potential to drive—or hinder—a just energy future.
Webinar 2: Empowering Change – Lessons from International Energy Communities
25.02.2025 6 pm (CET)
What if energy production and consumption were guided by the principles of democracy and community empowerment? Around the world, energy communities are redefining how we think about power—both literally and figuratively.
This session, featuring a Rowan Mataram from the Transnational Institute, will dive into inspiring stories and practical lessons from these grassroots movements, offering insights into how energy can be organized differently to promote equity and sustainability.
