Publication of a set of proposals to drive forward energy transition in our towns and cities
Energy Cities brings together local authorities to manage and promote energy transition. To help accelerate this transition, Energy Cities has published a set of 30 proposals from across Energy City members based on observation and analysis of hundreds of practical examples. The proposals cover five main areas: empowering local players; knowing our territories’; resources and flows; rethinking funding solutions; inventing local governance; urban planning as a way of reducing energy consumption.
This set of proposals is the fruit of a collection process initiated in 2012. It draws on the premise that although much is happening on EU and national levels, it is at more local levels that the new energy paradigm is being shaped.
