The RENOVERTY project is looking for local actors and stakeholders interested in replicating tested approaches to reduce rural energy poverty — particularly through the renovation of energy-poor households.
If you are a municipality, energy agency, local action group, NGO, or other stakeholder active in the fields of housing, social support, energy efficiency, or local development, this is your opportunity to benefit from free support, exchange knowledge with others, and develop impactful, sustainable solutions tailored to your regional context.
This Call of Interest is open to participants from all European countries eligible for participation under the LIFE Programme. Selected applicants will be supported through a comprehensive set of activities developed and tested during the RENOVERTY project. There is no requirement to replicate the full methodology, applicants are free to adopt one or more actions according to their needs and priorities.
