This webinar features four projects—ATELIER, POCITYF, NEUTRALPATH and ASCEND —each at different stages of creating Positive Energy Districts (PEDs) across 20 European cities.
Through real-world experiences from the Netherlands, Germany, Czech Republic and Portugal, this online event will provide a comprehensive view of energy communities in action. Diverse approaches, challenges, and solutions that have emerged will be discussed, offering valuable lessons and practical insights for energy experts, city representatives, and researchers alike.
Each project team will delve into a specific dimension of energy communities’ implementation, sharing key insights on how to overcome barriers and scale successful practices.
Whether you’re interested in the technical, social, or regulatory aspects, this event will provide valuable knowledge to build energy communities.
Register here to join the discussion and gain a fresh perspective on the future of energy communities!
