🤔 Looking for inspiring and game-changing #climate action? ⚡ Join our event "The Tool is Cool: instruments and solutions for effective energy and climate planning" and unlock your city's #sustainable potential! 🌆 Cities are facing a critical crossroads. They're major contributors to pollution and climate change, but they also hold the immense potential to lead the #energytransition. 🛠 The key to unlocking this potential? The right #tools! Local and regional authorities need practical solutions to simplify #planning and implementing effective energy and climate strategies. ️ Co-organised by #Regio1st, #LifeINPLAN and Capacity building for cities and regions | PROSPECT+, this event on February 8 will present some of these solutions to make cities the heroes of the energy transition! 👉 Join our discussion, register here: https://lnkd.in/d-ENYgZM #TheToolIsCool #SustainableCities #ClimateAction #EU #EnergyTransition FEDARENE (European Federation of Agencies and Regions for Energy and the Environment) Area Science Park South East Energy Agency LIFE Programme Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency North West Croatia Regional Energy and Climate Agency (REGEA)

A key bottleneck Belgium faces in the climate transition is lack of space- the same bottleneck pushes us to be creative with climate solutions and explains two main trends in our decarbonization strategy: 🌊 We look for climate solutions in our blue backyard. This is why Belgium excels in the blue economy and solutions such as offshore wind energy. ✅ We focus on climate solutions that are space efficient. For example, instead of large solar parks next to highways, we will focus on valorizing spaces like roofs, building facades or parking lots. Read more in this week's blog: https://lnkd.in/eb_ub3nR

Save the Date: Workshop of the Alpine Climate Board (Alpine Convention) and CIPRA Austria 🏔 📅 The energy transition and the “not in my backyard” phenomenon - Exchanging views and ideas on solutions for climate-neutral and climate-resilient Alps 2050 ➡ Thursday, 4 April 2024, 10:30 – 16:00, Hotel Heffterhof in Salzburg (AT) The NIMBY phenomenon, which has been empirically observed and was first identified in environmental justice movements in the USA in the 1980s and 1990s, refers to the discrepancy between general attitudes towards environmental improvement – we will talk explicitly about renewable energy technologies – and specific attitudes towards them. In other words, people are in favour of the construction of certain environmental technologies that bring about change because they make a positive contribution to the system, but they would rather not have them near their own homes. In this workshop, we want to exchange views and ideas on solutions that work towards climate-neutral and climate-resilient Alps 2050. We will discuss four main questions, focusing on the fourth: - What is the vision of climate-neutral Alps, focusing on the energy system? - How can the NIMBY phenomenon be overcome in the energy transition? - What common interests do the stakeholders have? - How can diverging interests be brought together? A mediator will guide us through this process in order to facilitate constructive discussions. The workshop is free of charge. Please register by 19 March 2024. The number of participants is limited (maximum 30). Registration: https://lnkd.in/eTaqQ3Ce

Excited to be part of the International Vienna Energy and Climate Forum (IVECF), discussing crucial topics around #climate, #energy and #sustainability. See you tomorrow to explore the engineering #innovations, challenges, and sustainable #solutions that can reshape #Africa’s energy landscape. #IVECForum23 #EnergyTransition #CEET #ClimateAction 🌍💡

Around 80% of the buildings we have today will exist in 2050, so it is essential for combating climate change that we retrofit them for energy efficiency.

As we recognize the recent funding announcement for the #AcornProject, let's shift our gaze to other global initiatives making waves in the fight against climate change. The #NorthernLightsProject in Norway, the #WhiteRoseProject in the UK, and #Eni's #RavennaProject in Italy are all pivotal in the global pursuit of carbon capture and storage solutions. Each of these projects is taking bold steps toward a more sustainable future, proving that together, we can innovate, inspire, and make a real impact. #EnergyNews #Sustainability #CarbonCapture #CleanEnergy

In this new year, let's collectively make the decision to transform our good intentions into tangible actions. At ODYSSEE Environnement, we propose turning your 2024 resolution into a concrete commitment towards energy savings and the well-being of our environment. Climate challenges and the need to reduce our carbon footprint are at the forefront of global concerns. That's why we offer innovative solutions to support you in this transition towards more responsible energy consumption. How about discussing it together?

Come and join the Nexus Climate Team as we speak on and moderate panels at this week's important World Future Energy Summit. If you want to meet any of the team and find out about our latest areas of work and interests, reach out to myself, Jaap Bastiaansen, or Sherif Elsayed-Ali. We will all be there and look forward to meeting you in person. #WFES #Nexusclimate #climateaction #policy #sustainability #cities #energy #construction #builtenvironment #climatediplomacy #governmentaffairs #internationalaffairs #publicpolicy #innovation

🌍 #ClimateAction 🌿Exciting news from #Germany! The country’s #CO2 emissions dropped by a significant 10.1% in 2023, marking the largest decrease since 1990. This progress aligns with Germany’s ambitious #climate goals for 2030. The reduction in carbon dioxide emissions from 2022 to 2023 suggests that Germany is on track to meet its ambitious climate targets by 2030. This is a result of a collective effort across various sectors, including energy and industry. Is your company active in the field of #cleantech or #energyefficiency and considering an expansion to Europe's largest economy?
