Scaling-up the involvement of women in supporting and accelerating market uptake of renewable energy sources for heating and cooling

Project description

Women as leaders of renewable energy shift in heating and cooling

The heating and cooling market needs to urgently shift towards renewable energy sources. Women hold great potential as leaders of this shift, driving the clean energy transition and the campaign towards meeting the EU’s climate goals. The EU-funded W4RES project will support the uptake of renewable energy in heating and cooling (RHC) from a gender-driven perspective. It will take into consideration framework conditions and regional specificities, assessing and mitigating obstacles. Moreover, it will build on gender-disaggregated awareness from the market and successful cases of women leading RHC programmes to develop cost-effective and flexible support initiatives with high reapplication potential. Gender-responsive monitoring will evaluate the performance of the initiatives and produce evidence-based knowledge to guide and facilitate their reapplication in other contexts.
