As #MFF consultations unfold, the EU can take inspiration from New York’s Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA).

It mandates that ≥35% (aim: 40%) of climate funding benefits disadvantaged communities.

🔥Europe isn’t ready for extreme heat!

Read @MarineCornelis 's first-of-its-kind report for the @EU_Commission: Framing Summer Energy Poverty.

We need urgent action⬇️

[Right to Energy Coalition EU 🇪🇺💡🌱 @RightToEnergy]

The @wellbasedEU project has concluded but the work to eradicate #EnergyPoverty starts now.

All action tools and measures must take health into account to truly deliver a just transition. ⬇️

The @EU_Commission announced it's action plan for affordable energy earlier today.

Our opinion in short: shuts the door on vulnerable households and it doesn't deliver tangible solutions.

On to the next one 👀

[Right to Energy Coalition EU 🇪🇺💡🌱 @RightToEnergy]

We call on the @EU_Commission to:

🔹 Stop funding fossil fuel infrastructure ❌
🔹 Ensure targeted funding reaches those who need it most
🔹 Strengthen protections against utility debt
A just transition means leaving no one behind! #RightToEnergy

[Right to Energy Coalition EU 🇪🇺💡🌱 @RightToEnergy]

🚨 EU’S AFFORDABLE ENERGY ACTION PLAN FAILS HOUSEHOLDS 🚨

The new plan prioritizes industry over people, leaving vulnerable households behind & failing to tackle the root causes of energy poverty. We need real solutions, not empty promises!
#RightToEnergy

[Right to Energy Coalition EU 🇪🇺💡🌱 @RightToEnergy]

✅ What must be done?
🔹 Social energy tariffs & monitoring of firewood prices
🔹 Energy renovations: Fully funded for low-income households
🔹 Local energy solutions: Heat networks, energy communities & energy sharing

#AffordableEnergyForAll must be fair & inclusive!
🌍🏡

🔥 ETS2 will drive up firewood prices, worsening energy poverty & air pollution. Millions of low-income households rely on firewood for heating, but without safeguards, they’ll be hit hard by the transition.
#EnergyJustice

[Right to Energy Coalition EU 🇪🇺💡🌱 @RightToEnergy]

The EU's plan falls short on energy poverty & does little to ensure access to affordable renewable energy for all. Meanwhile, public funding keeps missing those most in need. This is a critical failure! ❌ #AffordableEnergy

🏠 The #BuildBetterLives campaign dropped dozens of paper houses to EU decision makers urging them to prioritise deep home renovations in 2025.

Better homes:
📉 Save money & energy
✨Improve health & wellbeing
🏚️ Reduce #EnergyPoverty

See you in 2025 to continue the fight for the #RightToEnergy‼️

[wellbasedEU @wellbasedEU]

Last week, we organised our energy poverty workshop during the #RightToEnergyForum - the very first one focusing on #energypoverty and #PublicHealth .
An important step to share priorities, challenges and to identify joint working strands between sectors.

[wellbasedEU @wellbasedEU]

Health and #fuelpoverty need to be thought together: At the @RightToEnergy Forum, we highlighted innovative local action in the field from 3 local authorities (having signed the WELLBASED manifesto) and emphasised the crucial role they play.
🎥Replay here: https://t.co/ROb1S9jnu3

[wellbasedEU @wellbasedEU]

🧐Health improvements still happen more by accident rather than thx to systematic work. Health is seen as a consequence of #energypoverty measures, not as part and parcel of it. #Publichealth needs to be put at the very 1st stage of planning & policies.

Just once more in 2024:

📢 @EU_Commission & @DanJoergensen: delivering 🏡 renovations must remain your top priority

Renovating the EU’s worst-performing homes, occupied by the most vulnerable families, will improve lives + tackle carbon emissions ⬇️

🚨NEW REPORT by @TNInstitute reveals why public energy is the key to ending fossil fuel dependency and building a just, renewable future.

💫GREAT REPORT:

Energy efficiency policies are more important than ever — also for electrification.

This powerful, and often overlooked, tool can be instrumental in achieving affordable and inclusive electrification.
