Through REScoop.eu, energy cooperatives wish to make their voices heard in the European energy debate. After all, their members – people just like you and me – are the ones who will be paying for the transition to a more sustainable energy system. REScoop.eu empowers citizens and cooperatives and wants to achieve energy democracy.

Our federation has four well-defined objectives:

• We represent the voice of citizens and energy cooperatives to European policy makers

• We support starting and established energy cooperatives and provide them with tools and contacts to help them grow and prosper

• We facilitate international exchanges and cooperation between energy cooperatives

• We promote the cooperative business model in the energy sector

Governance

REScoop.eu was legally set up in 2013 as a Belgian not-for-profit association. We operate just like a cooperative.
