Supporting local authorities in the implementation of Sustainable Energy Action Plans in the Alpine Space Area (SEAPAlps)

Start date: Sep 30, 2012, End date: May 30, 2015,

The main objective of the project is to promote energy planning at local level by sharing a common methodology among participating Partners (PP). This is essential to tackle Climate Change (CC), as energy use is mainly responsible for it. Local Authorities (LA) have a key role in this mitigation process, but as generally acquired, mitigation is not sufficient since CC is already taking place. The ...
