Inspiring citizen-led renovation cases across Europe

The Support service for Citizen-led renovation has launched a new section on its website titled “Inspiring Cases”, highlighting successful community-driven energy renovation projects from across the EU. This collection features real-world examples from Phase II of the initiative and beyond, including efforts by local energy offices, cooperatives, and citizen groups that have tackled energy efficiency, housing upgrades, and climate resilience through collective action.

The Inspiring Cases aim to inspire other communities by demonstrating practical, inclusive, and replicable approaches to renovation. From guided retrofit tours to digital energy dashboards and one-stop-shop models, these stories illustrate how citizens are taking the lead in transforming their neighbourhoods for a sustainable future.

Explore the new section to learn how citizen-led efforts are driving the energy transition—one home, one community at a time.
