Event: Community 'Energy Dialogue'
Date: Tuesday 11 February 2025, 12noon-4pm
Location: Fair Play Cafe, York Road, Ringsend, Dublin

We’re hosting an ‘Energy Dialogue’ on Tuesday 11 February, 12-4pm, at the Fair Play Café in Ringsend, Dublin.

Participants will receive a catered lunch in addition to compensation for their time.

The ‘Energy Dialogue’ aims to give up to 30 citizens and energy stakeholders time and space to talk about their views on the energy transition through guided prompts. Participants will discuss, learn about, and make recommendations on local energy issues, what should happen with energy, and how local energy issues should change.

Participants are invited to share their insights, knowledge, questions, and concerns about local energy issues. Participants don't have to be an expert or know a lot about energy to participate. A willingness to share your views on your experiences choosing an energy provider, paying energy bills, and using energy in your daily life, for example, is what’s involved. You'll meet people from all walks of life, learn with peers and speakers, and discuss issues in small groups with facilitators who will make sure everyone can express themselves in a friendly and respectful environment.

The Ringsend Irishtown Sustainable Energy Community (RISEC) is supporting this event which is led by the ‘DIGITISE’ team. DIGITISE is a 3-year EU project that aims to understand how to empower and engage citizens in the energy transition.

We would be delighted if you can participate!
