WHAT IS THE EU SUSTAINABLE ENERGY WEEK (EUSEW)?
The EU Sustainable Energy Week (EUSEW) is a two month-long series of activities across Europe promoting secure, clean and efficient energy. It brings together policymakers, stakeholders and citizens to achieve climate and energy goals for the Energy Union. Launched in 2006, EUSEW is organised by the European Commission (Directorate-General for Energy and the Executive Agency for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises).
The Policy Conference is the biggest European conference dedicated to renewables and efficient energy use in Europe. Sessions organised by the European Commission and energy stakeholders focus on sustainable energy issues, debate new policy developments, best practices and sustainable energy ideas. Next to the conference, the Networking Village brings the EUSEW Community together to forge alliances whilst the EUSEW Awards celebrate outstanding projects and ideas. Read More

This new framework also provides a collaboration tool between all the actors in the integrated energy system. The question however is
How can prosumers and communities prepare to take on the new roles and become active players in the market?
Which roles are possible? How can communities organize themselves?
What technology can support them? Read More
