The Citizen Energy Advisory Hub (CEAH) is hosting a series of six ‘Chatting on Citizen Energy’ webinars, which examine the variety of activities that make up citizen energy initiatives, from energy sharing to flexible demand response.
These 90-minute webinars will take an in-depth look at what these concepts mean, the relevant European Union legislation, and how those provisions are implemented at the national level. To bring these ideas to life, the webinars will include presentations from experts dealing with the legal and technical aspects of citizen energy, and citizens actively producing, managing and sharing their own energy.
These webinars will interest local and regional authorities, regulating authorities, policymakers, system operators, energy communities and individuals interested in taking a more active role in their energy use. The audience will be able to interact with the speakers via Q&A sessions.
The series can be attended by members of the Citizen Energy Network, a free and growing community dedicated to knowledge-sharing, networking, and collaborating to drive citizen-centred energy solutions. Anyone can join the network in just a few minutes.
Two webinars in this series will be scheduled each year and dates will be communicated through the newsletter and on the website's Events pages. Sign-up to the quarterly newsletter to keep up to date.
To ensure broad access to knowledge, recordings of the speakers' presentations, excluding the Q&A sessions, will be made publicly available from this page, after each webinar has occured.
In this webinar, we will take a deep dive into the topic of community-owned battery storage, a way for citizens and communities to optimise their self-consumption of renewable energy and contribute much-needed flexibility to the grid.
The second Chatting on Citizen Energy webinar took place on Wednesday, 26 November 2025. The 1.5-hour session explored the topic of energy sharing—a new right that allows citizens to share self-produced renewable electricity with others.
