On Saturday, 10 February 2024, the first in a series of informational events on issues related to the Energy Transition took place, as part of the Educational Programme funded by the Regional Development Programme of the Region of Crete and implemented by the scientific team of Minoan Energy, with the technical and administrative support of the Local Government Development Agency “DAIDALOS S.A.”
The aim of the programme is to inform citizens about the opportunities and advantages of Renewable Energy Sources, the shift away from fossil fuels, the operation of broad‑based Energy Communities, and their contribution to society. Through comprehensive and multifaceted information, the programme highlights the philosophy of energy democracy and justice.
At the same time, the initiative seeks to motivate citizens to become consciously involved in the transition to clean energy sources, to strengthen local entrepreneurship, and to promote a solidarity‑based economy. In this way, investments in Renewable Energy Sources are carried out with society as an ally, while the economic and social benefits return to local communities.
This first event focused on professionals in the tourism sector and was held in the Municipal Council Chamber at the Municipal Building of Hersonissos.
