Eurometropole of Strasbourg - EPAH Technical Assistance

Local/regional project

The Eurometropole of Strasbourg, with an energy poverty rate of 20-26% and high energy demands due to harsh winters, is addressing energy poverty affecting nearly 38,600 households. A collaborative citymetropolis approach has revealed that the primary cause of fuel poverty is energy-inefficient housing. Despite existing aid mechanisms, long-term solutions are required, driving the region to accelerate its strategy with support from partners like the Climate Agency and ADEUS.

The st rategic objectives were: 

  • strengthened the territorial diagnosis of energy poverty in order to adjust the strategy
  • identify relevant data to be collected to facilitate the implementation of the "Territoires Zéro Exclusion Energétique (TZEE).

A comprehensive stakeholder mapping was conducted, identifying both internal and external actors. The map includes key information on each stakeholder's core skills, enhancing the municipality's ability to effectively utilize available resources. Additionally, the expert assisted the municipality in developing energy poverty indicators to identify households eligible for ongoing programmes. The expert also guided the creation of two 'typical' pathways for the target audience to follow in resolving their energy poverty. These pathways will enable the local government to design and implement effective, impactful actions.
