“The idea of the project was really to bring the social dimension to everything that’s energy.”

In this episode of Energ’Ethic, Marine Cornelis talks with Eduardo Blanco from Energy Cities, coordinator of the POWER UP project. Eduardo shares insights from the pilots and explains why building fair energy systems looks less like engineering and more like embroidery. Slow, precise and deeply human.
