Toward a Public Energy Future
Wednesday, 16 June 2021
1300-1530 CET (find your local time here)

• This session will share findings of the Interim Report developed by the Trade Union Task Force for a Public Energy Future. The final report of the Task Force will be completed before COP26 in Glasgow. Unions participating in the Task Force will present the main findings of the Interim Report, which consists of an analysis of the neoliberal approach to energy transition; the reasons — technical, social, ecological, and financial — of why a comprehensive public ownership is critical in terms of the broader decarbonization effort, and it will draw attention to some of the critical questions and debates that need to take place with regard to energy transition planning, technologies, social and ecological issues, and how public ownership would allow for a new approach to energy options.
