Proposals for the Energy Transition of Cities and Towns

In 2012, Energy Cities initiated a process aimed at making
and debating proposals for accelerating the energy transition
of European cities and towns. These proposals are based on
innovative approaches, new ideas and groundbreaking
practices. They provide practical answers and link today’s
action to the long-term vision of a low energy city with a high
quality of life for all.
