Heating & Cooling
Europe is using around half of its energy consumption for heating and cooling (H&C). The sector relies mostly on fossil fuels and it is responsible for about 27% of CO2 emissions. We defend and support the development of locally-sourced district heating & cooling networks to decarbonise Europe’ energy system.

PROSPECT
Peer-powered cities and regions
The overall aim of PROSPECT is to enable peer to peer learning in regional and local authorities in order to finance and implement their sustainable energy plans. The learning will empower them to make use of best practices in developing financing for these plans, which have been implemented successfully in other cities and regions in the EU. The specific objectives of PROSPECT are:
progRESsHEAT
Fostering the market uptake of renewable electricity, heating and cooling technologies
The progRESsHEAT project aims at assisting local, regional, national and EU political leaders in developing policy and strategies to ensure a quick and efficient deployment of renewables in the heating and cooling networks.
HotMaps
Europe's open-source tool for strategic heating and cooling
HotMaps aims at designing a toolbox to support public authorities, energy agencies and urban planners in strategic heating and cooling planning on local, regional and national levels, and in line with EU policies.
