This Basque town is pioneering a community-driven approach to renewable energy, supported by the European project “ProLight.” By equipping the San Fidel School with solar panels, Gernika harnesses the power of the sun and fosters local collaboration. This initiative reduces the town’s carbon footprint and empowers its residents. The solar panels at the school generate enough clean energy to power the homes of approximately 150 families and small businesses within a 500-meter radius. Discover how energy communities work and how they can contribute to a more sustainable future. Learn about the benefits of renewable energy and the importance of community engagement in advancing energy transition.
