A clean-energy transition in Southeast Europe: Challenges, options and policy priorities

Agora Energiewende´s mandate is to develop academically rigorous and politically feasible pathways for transforming energy systems toward clean energy in Germany, Europe and across the globe. Because its core funding comes from philanthropic organisations, Agora is fully autonomous, operating independently of business interests and political pressures. Since its founding in 2012, Agora Energiewende has become one of the leading think tanks in the field of energy system transformations.
Agora acts as an intermediary between decision-makers, stakeholders, scientists, and the media by combining research, dialogue, and outreach. A dedicated team of more than 40 experts examines a host of issues crucial to the energy transition. Through both in-house and commissioned studies, Agora finds answers to economic, technological, and policy questions in order to deepen the understanding and to create a base of knowledge for developing targeted solutions. Through intensive dialogue with major stakeholders, Agora provides evidence for setting future energy policy, build consensus about the best solutions, and promote measures to apply in specific contexts. In its international activities, Agora closely cooperates with partners in a number of emerging economies and OECD countries.
