Workshop - Changing narratives of energy efficiency in times of energy crisis - Covenant of Mayors Europe

This joint webinar is organised to discuss alternative solutions and changing narratives of energy efficiency in times of energy crisis.

In the context of rising energy prices and unstable supplies, new alternatives such as decarbonised district heating offer great solutions to avoid gas and further decarbonise our energy systems. Energy efficiency and the integration of waste heat and renewables in the systems provide for circular, more affordable and secure heating and cooling alternatives compared to imported gas and fossil fuels, especially within the challenging geopolitical / economical context. This webinar is organised in the frame of the Energy Efficiency Watch 4 and Decarb City Pipes 2050 projects.
