Kick off Meeting for the European Project ESCALATE

SUSTAINABLE CITY participates as a partner in the European ESCALATE project.

The ESCALATE project aims to accelerate Europe's energy transition to clean energy sources by helping cities across the European Union to design more efficient heating and cooling systems. The project focuses on cities with a population of over 45,000, ensuring that they have the right tools and knowledge to create local heating and cooling plans that reduce energy use and help protect the environment. ESCALATE will empower local communities to make their buildings more resilient, reduce pollution and help Europe become climate neutral by 2050 by providing expert technical training and a simple and clear guide to implementing such plans.

The kick-off meeting of the project took place on 3-4 September in Karlsruhe, Germany. 

After the first meeting, the partners discussed the objectives and the implementation plan of the individual actions, setting the basis for an excellent cooperation.
