The EU Sustainable Energy Week (EUSEW) is the biggest event dedicated to renewables and efficient energy use in Europe.
EUSEW brings together a broad range of partners like policymakers, industry representatives, businesses, civil society organisations and citizens during a 3-day policy conference in Brussels. It offers various networking opportunities and hosts an EU Sustainable Energy Awards competition, with a public vote for the Citizens' Award. It also includes local sustainable events - Energy Days - which are organised by both public and private organisations and held across Europe throughout the months of May and June. Any activity can be an Energy Day – from a workshop, to a competition, to a tour of a power station – provided it engages citizens and energy stakeholders in the clean energy transition. Since 2020, a European Youth Energy Day, addressing 18-34 year olds, has been added to the already rich programme.
The annual EUSEW event was organised for a decade by the Executive Agency for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (EASME) in close cooperation with Directorate-General for Energy. In 2021, the European Climate, Environment and Infrastructure Executive Agency (CINEA) took over EASME’s role.
The theme of the 2024 edition of the event is 'Net-Zero competitiveness driving the EU energy transition' and takes place 11-13 June 2024.
