EREF Policy Advisor @robertmlange.bsky.social stressed that participation is not an obstacle but a key enabler of an accelerated & democratic energy transition.

RED III creates a strong legal framework for faster permitting & meaningful consultation, but MS must now deliver. 2/6

✅Let’s keep pushing: transposition is not optional. Full and correct application of REDIII is vital for investment, market confidence, and Europe’s green transition.

A 100% renewable-based and inclusive heating and cooling sector is vital for a defossiled European energy system that is, also in the long term, competitive, resilient, and affordable. 3/4

Our response underlines that the Strategy must:
• scale up all RES heating and cooling technologies
• commit to a timely fossil fuels phase-out,
• strengthen energy efficiency + demand reduction,
• ensure fairness through decentralised, community-based solutions. 2/X4
October 10, 2025 at 1:13 PM
A resilient, affordable, and socially supported transition requires all renewable energy sources working together in a coherent framework that empowers citizens, SMEs, and communities.
