Horizon 2020, EE-10-2014: Energy Consumer engagement for sustainable energy / Region Zealand, Denmark Please find attached a partner search from Region Zealand for a project idea for the call Horizon 2020 – EE-10-2014: Energy Consumer engagement for sustainable energy. Deadline for the call is 5th of June 2014. Project idea: Several small towns and communities across Europe are today facing significant challenges (energy poverty, CO2 emissions, air pollution, lack of / in-efficient energy infrastructures) due to their dependence on fossil fuels (oil & gas) for heating and energy. Many of the communities are however not in the vicinity of DH or natural gas networks and will need to find alternative solutions. Towards this challenge initiatives have commenced in building various businessmodels to decrease risk for households as well as to reduce the costs. Cooperatives or Energy service contracts are current examples, but the market penetration of small-scale renewable are still moving too slow – for private energy costs as well as for European Union energy ambitions.
