The 2026 European Energy Transition Conference signals a "General Mobilization"!
Taking place for the first time in Dijon next June, the 27th European Energy Transition Conference is shaping up to be a pivotal edition following the municipal elections and the government's publication of the Multiannual Energy Programme.
This is a message from "General mobilization" which was chosen as the guiding thread, in particular to sound the alarm, act and react to the climate-skeptic movements that are poisoning institutions and certain media.
Jean Viard, grand témoin 2026 !
Trois mois après les élections municipales et intercommunales, dans un contexte où la transition énergétique nourrit débats, arbitrages et tensions, les Assises 2026 souhaitent répondre à trois enjeux majeurs : aider les décideurs à exercer des choix lucides dans un environnement marqué par l’incertitude, les tensions et les injonctions contradictoires, accompagner les territoires dans la concrétisation de leurs stratégies de transition énergétique et décrypter les mécanismes de la désinformation climatique afin de mieux les contrer.
Cette triple ambition sera incarnée par un grand témoin, Jean VIARD, et deux invités d’honneur pour apporter trois regards complémentaires : Eva MOREL et Dominique BOURG.

Expo Reflets d’avenir : les visages de la transition écologique
Derrière chaque portrait, une histoire, un savoir-faire, un engagement.
Créée par Dijon métropole et le Campus des Métiers et des Qualifications, cette exposition donne un visage à la transition énergétique et invite à découvrir celles et ceux qui, souvent dans l’ombre, construisent concrètement la ville de demain. Et si c’était votre métier ?
Durant les Assises, cette exposition sera accrochée dans le Village de Transition au Palais des Congrès, mais est aussi installée sur les grilles du Jardin Darcy, au centre-ville de Dijon.
Les Assises 2026 labellisées « Éco-manifestations niveau 3 »
Soucieuse de réduire l’impact environnemental de l'événement, la 27e édition des Assises Européennes de la Transition Énergétique a engagé une démarche de labellisation auprès d'Éco-Manifestations Alsace, et a obtenu le niveau 3, le plus élevé !
Une reconnaissance forte pour un événement qui fait de la cohérence environnementale une réalité concrète, du transport à la restauration, en passant par le choix des prestataires et la valorisation des déchets.
