Whilst the energy sector is key to the European economy, it also represents two thirds of the EU’s greenhouse gas emissions. It therefore plays a central role in the implementation of the Paris Agreement.

While Germany and Eastern European countries continue to oppose raising the EU’s 40% emission reduction target for 2030, a new analysis insists the bloc will actually manage at least 50% cuts under a business-as-usual scenario taking into account the latest coal phase-out pledges.

EXTRAPOLIS Newsletter : Milan launches Area B, Italy’s largest Low-Emission Zone

EXTRAPOLIS Newsletter : Milan launches Area B, Italy’s largest Low-Emission Zone | Energy Transition in Europe | www.energy-cities.eu | Scoop.it
From www.polisnetwork.eu - March 20, 2019 4:07 AM

In a bid to tackle air pollution and congestion, Milan has restricted access to the city for gasoline and diesel vehicles, thus introducing the largest low emission zone in Italy.
The “Area B”, as it was named by the city, covers about 72% of the entire municipal territory.
The municipality said that the introduction of “Area B” is part of a “definite, progressive and gradual set of rules to reduce particulate matter and improve urban quality in Milan”.

Price of energy saving certificates causes friction in France – EURACTIV.com | Energy Transition in Europe | www.energy-cities.eu | Scoop.it
From www.euractiv.com - April 16, 2019 5:38 AM
Energy saving certificates, or white certificates, were meant to be the answer to France’s slow progress in reducing energy consumption. However, there is far more demand than supply, resulting in a surge in prices of certificates, which have more than doubled in a year. EURACTIV France reports.

Burntisland energy masterplan

From www.localenergy.scot - April 10, 2019 5:00 AM

Fife Council wanted to understand how a community in Fife could reduce its carbon footprint by 80%. Through joint decision making with the local community we found out which low carbon heat and electricity solutions would be most suitable, and how much it would cost. The purpose of this project was to help the local community understand their energy needs, and how it could be supplied locally in a low carbon manner.
