Despite scientific evidence of gender differences in energy technology preferences, needs and access, gender is not reflected in national energy plans nor in the European Union’s (EU’s) overall energy strategy. Even ‘genderneutral‘ policies related to energy and enterprises tend to benefit men more than women. It is essential to implement a Green Transition with ambitious […]

Discover the main challenges for achieving the goal of 100% Renewable Heating and Cooling in Europe, with a detailed focus on Ireland. About this Event The National Round Tables are part of the European Technology and Innovation Platform on Renewable Heating & Cooling (RHC-ETIP) and represent a series of panel discussions involving policymakers and relevant […]
Heat represents more than half of Europe’s energy needs and the vast majority of it comes from fossil fuels. Shallow geothermal energy can be the key to decarbonise heating and cooling, being a clean and mature technology that could be installed anywhere in Europe. Yet, it is widely considered as a niche technology, even if in a […]
The carbon tax is a simple and effective tool for decarbonisation. Higher share of renewables often goes hand in hand with carbon taxation. Such is the case in Nordic countries for more than a couple of decades. Germany looks towards newly introduced carbon tax to fix the lower share of renewables in the heating and […]
Lessons learned and the Swedish experience! Europe aims for 100 percent renewable heating and cooling. Sweden is almost already there. Only fossil fuels in waste and minor volumes of peak oil remain to replace. But even for these peak load boilers there are often investment plans in place to switch fuels. How did we manage to become fossil free in the cold Nordic Scandinavia? […]
