RELOP working group promotes its first workshop “Integrated Strategies for the Energy Transition” next Thursday, 29 February
Several workshops will be held between now and July with the goal of discussing the effects of the energy transition on RELOP member countries.
A series of workshops organized by the RELOP working group on energy transition will begin in February. With one workshop per month until July, the working group aims to be an enriching forum for discussion and to encourage the sharing of knowledge and experiences among participants. The first workshop is entitled “Integrated Strategies for the Energy Transition” and will be held next Thursday (29/2) exclusively online.
The first panel will take place at 13h15 (Portugal time) and will focus on: Dimensions of National Energy and Climate Plans in Europe. Five dimensions will be presented: energy efficiency, energy security, decarbonization, internal market and research, innovation and competitiveness, highlighting good practices and successful initiatives in each dimension in the European Union. The aim is both to inform and inspire in the implementation of initiatives and best practices, adapting them to the specific context of the reality of each RELOP country.
At 13h55, an interactive dialogue will begin, with the identification of common challenges and unique opportunities in each country, along with a discussion on how the dimensions can be adapted to the specific contexts of the other RELOP countries; specific experiences of the participants and assessment of how the principles presented can be applied in their local realities and, finally, a Q&A session. At 14h45, the main points discussed will be summarized as well as suggestions for additional topics to be explored in future Working Group workshops.
By the end of the workshop, the goal is to have a deeper understanding of the energy transition and form a solid basis for future collaboration and initiatives within the Working Group.
