A historic moment for Energy Democracy!
At the event titled: “Just energy transition and allocation of electrical capacity in Crete,” which took place last Saturday, January 11, in Heraklion, the Mayor of Athens, Prof. Haris Doukas, made a highly honorable announcement during his speech on “Best Practices for Energy.”
The Municipality of Athens, the largest municipality in Greece, is joining Minoan Energy, the largest energy community in the country, as a member!
For us—an energy community with broad grassroots participation, based in a small town—this decision is a tremendous honor and a strong recognition of our contribution to a just energy transition. With unity, justice, and commitment to democratic principles, Minoan Energy continues to be a pillar of support for citizens, especially the most vulnerable.
This commitment was reinforced by the Mayor of Athens, who announced that 20 vulnerable households from the capital will receive free energy from our Community’s photovoltaic project currently under construction.
Warm thanks to the Mayor of Athens, Prof. Haris Doukas, for his support, his deep understanding of the importance of energy justice, and his trust in our work.
Energy is a public good, and through partnerships like this, we prove that the energy transition can be fair, collective, and beneficial for all. Together, we are building a better future, with sustainability, solidarity, and vision.
