From September 2021 to the end of November 2022, GREENROAD has set up two national roundtables:
1. National Roundtable “Instruments & Best Practices Roundtable”: it foresees the participation of the main national players in the energy efficiency field and in financing energy renovation interventions, such as: banks, financial institutions, business and professionals associations, representatives of the academic world.
2. National Roundtable “Policies & Recommendations Roundtable”: it foresees the participation of the main institutional stakeholders, representatives of ministries and authorities who deal with energy efficiency in the building sector, as well as representatives of national and international trade associations.
Three meetings of these roundtables have been held during this period and the proceedings of each roundtable are published on the GREENROAD website.
In between the thematic national roundtables, local events have been organized in order to create a strong connection between project activities carried out at national level and actions implemented at regional/local level, creating an efficient blending between the top-down and the bottom-up approach. These events involve local stakeholders with different origins and interests (industry, academia, consumer associations, local authorities, financial sector, ESCOs, construction sector, etc.), in order to get a wide feedback.
In order to involve them in a transparent and cooperative way, during the first months of 2022 a specific call for local stakeholders has been published on the GREENROAD project website. The call will remain open until the end of the project to allow new stakeholders to participate to GREENROAD events.
So far 2 local events have been organised:
- One event in Rome focusing on green finance and green bonds, as tools for energy efficiency interventions on buildings and for territorial development
- A second event in Milan focusing on “One stop shops”, as opportunities for energy efficiency interventions on the territory.
The proceedings of these events are available on GREENROAD website.
