Interactive online knowledge base of guiding materials and tested tools for local authorities

This task will develop a knowledge platform on tested tools, methods and guiding documents for developing long-term local energy transition roadmaps. The information will be made available in an online platform. It will provide calculation and planning as well as road mapping tools and guiding documents designed for the stakeholders of local authorities. The information will be structured according to the following main topics: 1) Heating and Cooling planning, 2) Financing of energy efficiency and renewables, 3) Energy efficiency in buildings, 4) Community, consumer and stakeholder engagement. Further topics and tools identified in the peer to peer learning process such as mobility and transport will be equally included. The knowledge platform will include tools and guidelines developed within other previous and ongoing projects and initiatives (see chapter 1 for a detailed description). The platform will be integrated into the project website (set up and developed within WP5). Apart from easy access to existing information, the platform will offer the opportunity for public authorities to exchange views on specific topics online. This will enable networking and peer-to-peer learning among stakeholders, not only within learning municipality networks on regional level, but also national and EU-wide.
