The Clean energy for EU island secretariat and CPMR Islands Commission are organising a half-day conference on EU islands’ grids and electricity systems on 30 January 2025, in Brussels.Join us at 14:00 for sessions on the modernisation of EU islands grid infrastructure and the electrification of islands with regard if the 100% renewable target.A networking cocktail will follow at around 18:30, aiming to strengthen the connections between the EU island stakeholders and the relevant organisations. The event will take place at Martin's Brussels EU, Bd Charlemagne 80, 1000 Bruxelles, Belgi

Within the technical assistance provided to the 30 for 2030 islands and islands groups, special attention is paid to providing the local teams with tools and knowledge to support their development of RE and EE projects.With this objective, the Clean energy for EU islands secretariat is organizing 20 workshops over three years to promote capacity building on relevant topics.The workshops are held in person on selected islands and involve representatives from the island transition teams of various interested islands.

Join the 9th International Hybrid Power Plants & Systems Workshop, taking place 3–4 June 2025 on the Åland Islands, Finland! With over 60 expert presentations, the agenda features real-world case studies from islands like Åland, Porto Santo and Indonesia, cutting-edge insights on grid-forming technologies, advanced BESS integration strategies, and future-ready hybrid plant topologies.What to Expect:Engaging presentations on grid integration, innovative design approaches, system studies, and ancillary services.

This year’s forum, ‘Towards a Citizens Energy Package: Empowering citizens for a just energy transition’, takes place in the context of the next Commission mandate, following the European elections earlier this year. It will kickstart work on the Commission’s Citizens Energy Package, which will increase citizen participation in the energy transition and strengthen the social dimension of the Energy Union.It will be live web-streamed, with the possibility for the online audience to engage.

In collaboration with the SUSTENANCE H2020 project, RE-EMPOWERED is hosting the session "EU-INDIA Collaboration for smarter energy systems: The RΕ-EMPOWERED & SUSTENANCE Projects" in the framework of the #MedPower conference! India is undertaking ambitious policies for the energy transition while striving to increase electricity access and supply reliability. The country has become one of the largest PV markets globally, with large-scale solar farms and rooftop installations growing rapidly, while it is also a major player in wind energy and biomass.

Join us for a powerful event exploring the future of Europe’s island energy grids!Kicking off with insights from MEPs and leading experts, we’ll explore the significant investment needs for resilient, sustainable grids. Zsuzsa Cseko from Eurelectric will present Grids for Speed, a comprehensive overview of the challenges and strategies for integrating renewable energy across EU islands. Lucija Rakocevic (Clean energy for EU islands secretariat) will unveil the Pact for Island Grids, focusing on fostering energy transitions in remote and non-interconnected communities.
