The 16th AG4 Meeting will be held in an online format on March 9th, 2021 - hoping that conditions surrounding COVID-19 will allow for a physical meeting in the near future!
Action Group 9
To make the territory a model region for energy efficiency and renewable energy
Mission
Action Group 9 focuses on the promotion of energy efficiency and the production and use of local renewable energy in the Alpine Region, especially in the public and private sectors. The framework is provided by, inter alia, the EU’s energy directives, the EU goals for 2020 and the Energy Union Package. The action aims at supporting a significant reduction of energy consumption in the housing and mobility sector, as well as in small and medium enterprises. The action promotes energy management and monitoring systems at different levels.

Specific Objectives
- Setting up an Alpine energy efficiency cluster. This cluster should serve as a forum for cooperation and innovation, bring technical solutions for the specific energy needs of the Alpine Region, and develop energy efficiency processes and products particularly adapted to the Alpine Region, especially in the housing and mobility sectors.
- ‘Greening the Alpine infrastructure’: focusing on energy efficiency in the building sector and promote harmonised, affordable and operational assessment tools to be used by public authorities in order to boost sustainable and low-carbon buildings in the Alpine Region.
- Setting up an Alpine renewable energy cluster while taking into account ecological, economical and land use issues and considering societal trade-offs.
- Support energy management systems in the Alpine Region by developing, sharing and installing energy efficiency and decentralised monitoring systems at the local level and by promoting regional energy monitoring.
- Support a better use of local resources and increase energy self-sufficiency while reducing impacts on climate and the environment.

Projects
Actions
EUSALP Energy Survey |
Reliable energy data are the basis for decision-makers to define, to implement and to monitor the effectiveness of energy policies. |
Start01/2016 End12/2017 |
||
Grey energy assessment in construction/ Alpine construction materials |
In order to reach a climate-neutral building stock by 2050, the building sector must be considered. |
Start01/2016 End12/2017 |
||
Greening the Alpine Infrastructure / Building Sector |
The goal of this report is to show how a common set of Key Performance Indicators (KPI) in the Alpine area could be adopted and what the bottlenecks and challenges for the promotion of common KPIs |
Start02/2017 End12/2018 |
||
Compilation of an overview of smart grid activities and projects in the member regions |
Development of a set of sustainability criteria for electricity grids, based on a survey. |
Start02/2017 End12/2018 |
||
Defining the Remaining Potentials of Renewable Energies in the Alpine Region |
