==== SUMMARY ====
In 2016, Mihai Toader-Pasti and Claudiu Butacu realized that it was legally impossible for them to generate their own energy and feed excess energy back into the grid. They founded EnergiaTa, an organization with an innovative approach that structurally simplifies and mainstreams the process of becoming a prosumer. The organization tackles every aspect of the process, as well as taking equity issues into account: from bureaucratic issues to financial compensation and energy literacy.
 
==== TRANSFORMATIVE POTENTIAL: ====
EnergiaTa uses an innovative approach, bringing citizens who want to innovate the energy system, campaigning, and collaborating for their rights, together with other actors. They have revolutionized the Romanian energy landscape by campaigning for prosumerism and unlocking a range of subsidies. In addition, EnergiaTa promotes discussion around equity and aims to use prosumer technology to reduce energy poverty in Romania.
