The Reclaiming Energy Report—the third installment in TNI's Public Power trilogy—offers systemic solutions to the climate crisis—advocating decolonial, democratic governance and transformative public–community partnerships. Building on the trilogy's vision, this report reimagines energy as a public good and charts transformative pathways to just, democratic, and sustainable energy systems.

Using real-world examples from all over the world, the report shows that these ideas are not just ‘nice-to-haves’, but realistic and achievable.

"Reclaiming Energy" highlights:

How public ownership can drive the transition to renewables faster and more equitably.
The vital role of workers and communities in reclaiming decision-making power.
Case studies from South Africa, Tunisia, Costa Rica, the UK, and more—showing how country-wide struggles are laying the foundation for global change.
Why democratic control is essential to ensuring energy as a right, not a commodity.
