European Sustainable Energy Week 2025: Just transition event round-up


The annual European Sustainable Energy Week (EUSEW) is inviting energy policy-makers, professionals, and practitioners to join its insightful conversations and to seize networking opportunities during the three-day event held in Brussels. At the heart of EUSEW is the Policy Conference, which now marks its ninth edition. Here, energy stakeholders can discuss innovations and the future of sustainable energy in Europe.

EUSEW, which will also take place online, is Europe’s biggest event dedicated to renewables and efficient energy use. It is organised by the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA) and the Directorate-General for Energy.
