31 Jan 2023 — Find out why POCITYF was mentioned in this book by Antonini and Gaspari

Because of the effects of global climate change, cities’ energy needs are rising more than ever. It is therefore pivotal to shift to a decarbonising global energy system. How? Thanks to a wider use of renewable energy.

Positive Energy Districts (PED) are key to this transition since they work on:

  1. energy efficiency in buildings;
  2. flexibility for energy consumption within districts;
  3. regional/local supply of renewable energy.

POCITYF is mentioned as one of PED best practices at EU level particularly for its focus on active engagement of citizens.
