SUMMARY:Supporting local authorities in Europe’s green transition
DESCRIPTION:What’s the role of local authorities in the green transition? Are rural administrations and stakeholders ready to take an active role in this crucial process? How do we engage effectively with local authorities to accelerate the transition? Join the webinar and discuss these topics with experts brought together by the RECET project\, funded by the EU LIFE programme. \nMuch of the renewable energy infrastructure needed for the clean energy transition\, including wind\, solar\, biomass and related energy systems\, will be developed in rural areas. This places rural municipalities and regional authorities at the heart of decisions on land use\, planning\, permitting and local development. \nHowever\, compared with larger urban administrations\, they often have fewer staff\, more limited access to specialist expertise and less administrative capacity to move quickly from planning to implementation. This can make it harder to respond to top-down demands\, assess trade-offs and ensure that local communities are involved in decisions that affect them. \nThis webinar is the final event of the RECET project\, which works to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and accelerate the clean energy transition in five European regions and their municipalities. The project aims to strengthen the capacity of rural administrations and stakeholders to take an active role in the green transition\, while supporting local acceptance and place-based solutions. \nJoin the webinar to discuss the role of local authorities in the green transition and how the RECET project has been used to support local authorities in Iceland\, Sweden\, Spain and Slovenia to plan for the clean energy transition and climate action. The RECET project partners\, experts and practitioners will discuss engagement approaches\, action-based policy making and the role of trust and simplicity as key ingredients for success. \n  \nREGISTER HERE
