Presentations and Webinar Recording: Energy Communities & District Heating: A Practical Guide for Municipalities

In this webinar, co-hosted by the Covenant of Mayors, the Smart Cities Marketplace, and the Connect-Heat project, we delved into an increasingly vital shift in urban energy management: the rise of Thermal Energy Communities (TECs). As the demand for reliable, locally-sourced energy grows, cities are uniquely positioned to lead this transformation.

Cities and their energy agencies play an essential role in establishing TECs by leveraging their infrastructure, policy-making capabilities, and community engagement. By focusing on TECs, they can create a more integrated and sustainable local energy landscape, moving beyond traditional renewable energy initiatives.
