As part of EWRC, Pomorskie region is holding a session on Energy transition – making local and regional solutions replicable for Europe on 11 October from 09:30-10:30. 

The energy transition is all about commitment to clean energy, but it is also about decentralising energy production. This workshop will cover initiatives that are contributing to decarbonisation efforts at local/regional level and showcase projects that are establishing integrated local energy systems (energy islands). The debate will offer local, regional and academic perspectives on the energy shift and its prerequisites, for example in terms of cooperation and sustainability.

Speakers:

• Mr Iñigo ANSOLA KAREAGA – Director at EVE, Ente Vasco de la Energía
• Ms Birgitte BAK-JENSEN – Coordinator of the SERENE and SUSTENANCE projects (funded by H2020), Aalborg University
• Ms Janina WILKOS-GAD – Representative, Municipality of Pruszcz Gdański, Pomorskie region

The event is part of the official programme of the European Week of Regions and Cities (EWRC registration).
