Description du projet
Accompagner les municipalités dans la planification stratégique en matière de chauffage et de refroidissement
Les systèmes de chauffage et de refroidissement (C&R) consomment la moitié de l’énergie de l’UE. Moins d’un quart de cette énergie est produit à partir d’énergies renouvelables. Cette tendance pourrait mettre en péril l’objectif de l’UE de parvenir à la neutralité carbone à l’horizon 2050. Dans ce contexte, le projet ActIonHeat, financé par l’UE, vise à promouvoir le concept et les méthodes de planification stratégique en matière de C&R, à en améliorer la qualité et à dynamiser le développement et la mise en œuvre des mesures identifiées. Plus particulièrement, il identifiera les facteurs de réussite des plans C&R solides et efficaces existants, et accompagnera les municipalités dans la planification stratégique en matière de C&R. Le projet proposera également des possibilités de formation pour les parties prenantes qui peuvent contribuer activement à la décarbonation dans l’utilisation des flux de travail, des processus et des outils grâce à un programme de formation spécialement conçu à cet effet.
Objectif
Heating and cooling (H&C) accounts for about half of Europe’s total energy needs with 75% still dependent on fossil fuels. Thus, rapid and significant change is needed to reach the EU 2050 goals. Due to the local nature of H&C systems, action has to be taken at local level involving a variety of stakeholders. This has been recognised in recent years and activities have been started like developing best practice policies and open source analysis tools. However, (efficient) H&C planning and project development are still not commonplace in most European municipalities.
The objectives of Act!onHeat are to further disseminate and take up the concept and methods for strategic H&C planning, increase its quality and to push the development and implementation of identified measures. To reach these goals Act!onHeat will implement the following activities: (i) identify the success factors of strong and efficient existing H&C plans and develop a workflow for strategic H&C planning and project development based on the existing open source tools Hotmaps and THERMOS, (ii) support at least 120 municipalities in strategic H&C planning and the development of at least 30 pre-feasibility studies for related individual projects with a mix of tailored individual and group support activities, (iii) train stakeholders who can actively contribute to decarbonisation in the use of workflows, processes and tools through a dedicated training programme, and (iv) leverage additional impact with a mix of Europe-wide roadshow events, acceleration dialogues, webinars and further promotional activities.
The consortium is perfectly suited for these activities bringing together leading European experts in strategic H&C planning and policy analysis, local governments networking, capacity building and investment support. A remarkable number of letters of support show the interest of the target group as well as the well-established connections between the target group and the consortium members.
