Energy Democracy Now! Co-operative Limited is a PEI community-based advocacy organization — founded and incorporated in 2023 — on the principle that the climate crisis demands a shift from a corporate, centralized, fossil-fuel economy to a society and economy that are governed by local community priorities.
The Co-operative is committed to protect and defend the best interests of all Island residents on matters of energy democracy and is governed by the following principles:
- Residents of PEI should have greater democratic control and participation in energy policies and decisions.
- Electric utilities should operate to serve the needs of communities, not the profits of shareholders.
- Public ownership can take the form of municipal energy utilities or locally owned and/or worker co-operatives.
- The need to accelerate the transition to renewable and local energy which is energy from the sun, wind, water, and geothermal.
- Every Island resident should be guaranteed sufficient and affordable energy while at the same time advocating for its conservation.
