(Renewable) power to the people

Consumers hold the key to the EU’s energy transition. Helping them unlock this potential is CLEAR-X.

The project facilitated consumer access to household renewables at an affordable price through the provision of trusted information, and nine collective purchase schemes to buy renewable energy and energy-efficient products (e.g. heat pumps or photovoltaic panels), in addition to advocating an improved regulatory framework. The campaigns reached 17 500 consumers, triggering an investment of almost EUR 8 million in renewable energy-sourced installations. This resulted in an additional 10.58 gigawatt hours of renewable energy generation, with 2.85 gigawatt hours of primary energy savings.
