Who we are
We're a new thematic group within the European Youth Movement, bringing together young professionals, students, researchers and future policymakers around one shared interest: Europe's energy future.
Our vision
Energy stopped being a side topic a while ago. It's tangled up in everything now — who has leverage over whom, who can afford the transition and who can't, which countries get to call the shots on climate policy because they got their energy mix sorted early. It's not just an environmental question anymore. It's a question of power.
Yet the people who will live longest with today's energy decisions are rarely the ones in the room when they're made.
That's the gap we want to close. Not by waiting for someone else to have these conversations, but by having them ourselves — seriously, and without pretending the hard questions have easy answers. How do we balance climate goals with energy security? What role should nuclear play in strategic autonomy? Who bears the cost of the transition, and who actually benefits?
What we'll cover
Six areas of focus, built out over the coming months:
