Errekaleor Bizirik – Argi izpiak iluntasunean – A little light in the darkness

Errekaleor Bizirik is a neighborhood and project in which we live in a community based on the principles of self-management and self-determination (autogestion) in Gasteiz, Basque Country. We are creating an alternative way of living in which we take an active part in the creation of our own lives and society. As a part of this process, we are trying to achieve energy sovereignty in our neighborhood, creating an environmentally friendly and off-the-grid electrical system that will provide for all of our homes and communal spaces. We want to turn Errekaleor into a self-sufficient island of renewable energy that has no need for corrupt and exploitative private electrical companies like Iberdrola.
