Why should your local authority act on energy efficiency now? [1]
Local authorities serve as example and stimulate innovative instruments for financing energy efficiency, especially in its public building stock and public lighting. A local authority can stimulate further market uptake and development for energy efficiency.
Local authorities benefit from energy efficiency improvements [2], and as the closest level to citizens, local authorities can encourage them to get involved in this process and support cooperative and citizen-based financing models and benefit from them.
