ManagEnergy Sectoral Information Kit 15: Energy Planning for Cities
We live in an increasingly urbanised environment. In fact, about two-thirds of Europeans live in cities which, together, emit around half the EU’s greenhouse gas emissions. This means that urban areas a major front in the battle against climate change, and that city and town authorities need to take the lead and set an example.
The following information is provided by this information kit:
- What is an energy plan? Each urban area has its own unique needs and, hence, each local energy plan will differ from city to city and town to town
- Energy planning and how it is linked to the Covenant of Mayors: The Covenant is an open process to which the contribution of all stakeholders is necessary and valuable
- Local energy agencies and energy planning: the role of local energy agencies in assisting municipalities in the definition and preparation of a sustainable energy action plan
