From Risky to Resilient: How Citizens Can Fund the Transition

How do we move community energy from “too risky” for banks to a serious part of Europe’s clean energy future? In this episode, Marine Cornelis speaks with Chris Vrettos (REScoop.eu & Electra Energy) about the ACCE project, which is closing with its final event on 7 October. Key takeaways Community Energy Financing Schemes (CEFS): tools built by and for communities that make projects bankable and scalable. From risk to resilience: bundling many small initiatives into portfolios that investors take seriously. Inclusion by design: solidarity shares and ethical finance models that bring vulnerable households into the transition. Policy momentum: how the Social Climate Fund, EU budget, and potential EIB guarantees can support citizen-led finance. Why listen? Finance is never neutral. As Chris reminds us, it can either lock communities out or bring them in. ACCE has shown that citizen-driven finance is not only possible, but scalable. 🎧 Tune in now — and if you want to see what comes next, join the ACCE closing conference on 7 October 2025, where Marine will moderate the discussion: https://acce.rescoop.eu/news/acce-con...
