The Renocally project is organising a webinar on 6 June to share and compare energy efficiency policies and renovation initiatives in Central and Eastern Europe and the Western Balkans. The webinar will also touch upon opportunities and challenges for public authorities and present practical cases from Slovakia, Serbia and Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Cities are packed with concrete and buildings, trapping heat and creating "urban heat islands" that are significantly warmer than surrounding areas. This phenomenon can lead to a cascade of issues for residents, particularly the already vulnerable. As extreme weather becomes increasingly frequent, Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) are an important part of the answer for cities. By […]

The recast Energy Efficiency Directive requires cities with over 45.000 inhabitants to develop local heating and cooling plans. Member states play a crucial role in providing funding, aligning legal frameworks, offering technical support, and ensuring access to relevant energy-related data. Yet, a recent track report by Energy Cities reveals a significant gap in readiness among […]
Featuring coalition members CAN Europe and Energy Cities, this session explores the topic of streamlining permits for renewables. 2022 and 2023 were record years for new wind and solar installations but reaching the EU’s 2030 renewable energy target will require further significant scaling-up of the installed capacity. The REPowerEU Plan set in motion legislative and […]
Featuring coalition member E3G’s Tsvetelina Kuzmanova contributing to the discussion, this session focuses on mobilising transition finance for a net-zero, energy secure, and competitive economy. The next EU mandate will be responsible for implementing the EU’s 2030 climate target. This requires the next Commission to secure over €620 billion p.a. of investments for the Green […]
