Complex Systems and Social Practices in Energy Transitions is the result of an interdisciplinary effort undertaken by a group of scholars in order to stress the urgency of a double change of gear in mainstream research and policy approaches dealing with the current transition to renewable energies.

Expectations are that broadband equipment will contribute considerably to the electricity consumption of households in European Community in the near future.

Here you can find the main documents relative to the ICT Code of Conduct for Energy Efficiency in Data Centres.

 This report aims to assess the extent to which the buildings-related datasets which European Member States are sharing following INSPIRE provisions are of good quality and can serve the purposes of the initiatives related to energy efficiency of buildings. 

The purpose of the present guidebook is to help the Covenant of Mayors signatories to reach the commitments they have taken by signing the Covenant, and in particular to prepare within the year following their official adhesion a Baseline Emission Inventory (BEI) and a Sustainable Energy Action Plan (SEAP).

The main objective of this workshop was to share experience in data collection and methodologies to support energy efficiency policies and scope a possible pilot. The aim of a pilot project is to establish a harmonised approach supporting European Directives on Energy Efficiency (EED), Energy Performance of Buildings (EPBD) and the Covenant of Mayors initiative using INSPIRE as a ‘location’ framework facilitating a harmonized exchange of data.

At the EEDAL'15 conference 128 papers dealing with energy consumption and energy efficiency improvements for the residential sector have been presented. Papers focused policies and programmes, technologies and consumer behaviour. Special focus was on standards and labels, demand response and smart meters. All the paper s have been peer reviewed by experts in the sector.
