The Commission has introduced a new online platform: the 'Citizens’ Engagement Platform' to serve as a digital forum where individuals can express their perspectives, share experiences, and contribute ideas regarding current issues related to EU policies.
The initial topic open for discussion is energy efficiency, a fundamental aspect of EU energy policy. EU residents are encouraged to engage in conversations about the obstacles and advantages associated with energy efficiency, exploring its implications for households, businesses, and communities.
This platform provides a venue to deliberate on ways to incorporate more energy-efficient choices into our daily routines. This includes discussions on energy production and distribution, home renovations, and the selection of energy-efficient appliances. Implementing improved practices throughout Europe can lead to a reduction in the EU's reliance on fossil fuels from Russia, lower greenhouse gas emissions, and decrease energy expenses. Simultaneously, it can enhance our overall health and well-being.
