How Green is Your Deal x RETOOL project: Episode 3: Public consultations in National Energy and Climate Plans: Improving legitimacy?
Public participation in the National Energy and Climate Plans (NECPs) is not only mandated by the EU, but also forms a crucial part of ensuring their legitimacy and effectiveness. Nevertheless, the quality of participation varies widely between EU member states, and participation itself has increasingly come under threat.
Continuing our collaboration with the Green Deal-NET project, the third episode of How Green Is Your Deal? (Season 3): Public consultations in National Energy and Climate Plans: Improving legitimacy? features our partner Lea Schewe.
In this episode, she discusses with the host Jana Gheuens why involving citizens and stakeholders in National Energy and Climate Plans can actually improve policy quality, implementation and public trust in the long term.
