On May 29th, the Meeting of Community Entities Working on and Driving the Community Energy Transition took place at the Vigo Campus (Salón de Graos, Faculty of Economics and Business Sciences). This technical and participatory event was organized by the Galician Wind Observatory (OEGA), the Life EC4Rural project, the UVigo spin-off Enerxía Comunitaria, the Interuniversity Research Centre for Atlantic Cultural Landscapes (CISPAC), and the Observatory of Common Land and Wastelands (Montes en Man Común e Baldíos).

The event brought together neighbourhood common land communities, associations, cooperatives, researchers, public administrations and energy sector professionals, all sharing a common goal: driving the energy transition from rural Galicia.

All the event’s video content is now available online, organized into several thematic sessions:

• Community experiences of energy transition, featuring case studies from Catalonia (Eolpop) and Germany (Energieland2050), alongside an overview of wind energy in Galicia
• The role of Common Land Communities in the energy transition, including legal perspectives on the topic
• Community energy transition projects, with concrete experiences such as Tameiga, Puga, Cabeiras and Nosa Enerxía SCG
• Common land communities managing CO2: their own energy transition projects, featuring contributions from Tenza Consultores and the Vincios Common Land Community (Gondomar)
• Public and community participation in the energy transition
• The private sector driving the energy transition, featuring the Juana de Vega and Isla Couto foundations
• Wind farm repowering: an opportunity for common land communities?,
• Building a Network of Community Entities for the Energy Transition, as the closing session and future outlook of the meeting
