Deliverables

Documents, reports (11)

120 Factsheets on municipalities assisted in heat planning

These are the factsheets describing how the 120 selected municipalities have been supported in h&c planning. Preliminary draft versions for subsets are sent in M12 and M26 as annexes together with the progress and interim report.

Heat & Cold in practice case study collection

This is a selection of inspiring, tangible example cases and projects developed and refined in the support facility and in the training facility. Key facts and figures are clearly presented.

Pre-feasibility study template

This is the template for the pre-feasibility studies that will be carried out in WP4.

Set of templates for managing results and data

This is the set of templates for managing results and data, as support for implementing the Act!onHeat workflow.

Integrated Hotmaps & THERMOS User Guide

This is an integrated user guide for Hotmaps & THERMOS.

Final publishable report

This is the final publishable report covering the period from month 1 to 42.

Strategic H&C planning success factors: report & video summary

This is the summary of the findings on researching success factors for strategic H&C planning in a report and video summary.Note: It is envisaged that the qualitative and quantitative data collected in relation to D2.1 will be made available under Article 29.3.

Act!onHeat local replication roadmap

This roadmap provides guidance to energy planners from local governments and energy agencies on how to design goals, plans and projects. Step-by-step guidelines and practical examples are used to support the scaling up and adoption of Act!onHeat models and tools at local level across Europe.

Call for Applications - Selection Criteria

These are the selection criteria for the online calls by which municipalities can apply for support within the Act!onHeat project.

Recommendations for public authorities

Project website

This is the project website.

Online Call for Applications (4 times)

This is the online call for municipalities to apply for support under the Act!onHeat project. The call will take place 3 times (M6, M15, M24) and will be published on the project website.

2 Short introductory result-oriented videos

These are two short introductory/enhancing results-oriented videos focusing on the hotmaps and THERMOS tools. They show in which context the tools can be usefully applied and what can basically be achieved with the tools.

3 Detailed Video Tutorials
