LIFE STEP-WISE: EASIER ENERGY TRANSITION PLANNING FOR LOCAL AUTHORITIES

LIFE Step-WISE is a co-funded project by the European Union, started in December 2023, which recognises the central role held by local authorities in reducing energy consumption and gas emissions through the development of local clean energy transition plans.
The project consists of a tailored and dynamic capacity building programme to transform local and regional authorities into autonomous early adopters of digitised, integrated, and ambitious Clean Energy Transition Plans.
The Step-WISE mission is to increase capacity of local and regional authorities to initiate an effective energy transition through development of Clean Energy Transition Plans.
The eight project partners, with EIS as coordinator and Sinloc as participant, will work to make the process easier, quicker and more accurate via a Step-WISE toolkit, which will allow administrations at all levels to have a digital baseline model of their area/region and use physics-based energy simulation. Il toolkit sarà in grado di valutare diversi scenari, dare priorità agli interventi nel tempo e costruire un piano dinamico di transizione e di monitorarne i progressi. Sinloc si occuperà di realizzare un inquadramento strategico e normativo degli strumenti di policy, supporterà lo sviluppo del toolkit e supporterà l’azione di capacity building a beneficio di sei amministrazioni di medio-piccola dimensione appartenenti ad isole del Mediterraneo, grazie al collegamento con la European Facility NESOI.
