PET translates its field experience, academic expertise and work with local actors into applied research, practical guides, roadmaps and policy tools for municipalities, communities and citizens. Its publications are designed to make energy transition, citizen energy and local climate action more understandable and easier to implement in practice. 

Energy Democratization and Local Actors: PET developed a study on energy democratization in Serbia, identifying key municipal actors and opportunities for stronger local participation in the energy transition. The findings were presented to more than 80 stakeholders at PET’s conference in Nis. 

Models for Local Government Support to Energy Communities: PET prepared a practical Catalogue of Models showing how local self governments can support the establishment, development and financing of energy communities. 

Municipal Energy Transition Guide: The guide “How Can Your Municipality Become a Driver of the Energy Transition?” provides local governments with a step-by-step framework for taking a more active role in local energy management, citizen engagement and community energy development. 

Building Renovation and Energy Efficiency: PET developed a practical building renovation guide that explains technical, financial, legal and organizational aspects of energy renovation, while also addressing the lived experience of tenants and housing communities during the renovation process. 

Gender, Energy Poverty and Just Transition: Through the WomENergy initiative, PET produces policy recommendations and analyses on the gender dimensions of energy poverty, citizen energy and just transition. This work highlights the importance of inclusive participation, fair access to energy solutions and gender-responsive approaches in the development of resilient local energy communities. PET’s work on this topic was also presented at the annual Energy Cities Conference in Porto, in front of more than 50 European municipal representatives and stakeholders.
