The main objective of the project is to promote energy planning at local level by sharing a common methodology among participating Partners (PP). This is essential to tackle Climate Change (CC), as energy use is mainly responsible for it. Local Authorities (LA) have a key role in this mitigation process, but as generally acquired, mitigation is not sufficient since CC is already taking place. The two options approach (mitigation and adaptation) in the energy planning process, are thus, essential. Following this principle an ad hoc methodology for drafting Sustainable Energy Action Plans (SEAP) in Alpine Space Area (ASA) will be created, promoted and implemented. PPs will improve their own skills thanks to a capacity building process improving their effectiveness in supporting LA. Furthermore one Action Plan for Public Investments methodology based on the requirement of art 4 of COM-2011/0370 will be available for ASA and several of these Action Plans will be drafted as pilot actions.
