All you need to know about energy efficiency: inspiring examples from all over the continent

For one afternoon, the Local Energy and Climate Agency (ALEC) exported its information meeting format (ALEC Thursdays) to open up to the wide public of the City-zen Days. The participants, European partners or simply curious, then came to discover the energy renovation operations at work in Grenoble and Amsterdam.

During this Thursday of the ALEC devoted to the massification of the energy renovation of housing, the agency proposed an exchange in three stages. On the agenda: the Grenoble metropolitan area’s renovation campaign, the implementation of renovation campaigns for the social housing sector in the Netherlands, French and European projects and initiatives for the massification of energy renovation. The event ended with a fourth round of discussions on the transfer of global renovation concepts to the cities of Grenoble and Amsterdam.

A large number of local actors came to present their projects and share their feedback in the cities of Grenoble and Amsterdam. Energy renovation actions are also underway throughout Europe and each contributes to the deployment of new operations. Something to find inspiration for those who wish to embark on a similar project.

  • The Project

    A city operating entirely on clean energy. In theory, it's possible. But in real life? How to integrate new solutions in existing buildings, systems and people's lives? What are the technical, economic or social barriers? And how to overcome these? That's what we've learned by doing in 20 projects in Grenoble and Amsterdam.
