This online event was organised in the framework of REDI4Heat EU Project.
REDI4Heat project has the aim to support the implementation of RED provisions on heating and cooling and assist Member States and local authorities in this process; to do that, the consortium have done a great work of assessment of the NECPs for the period from 2021 to 2030, submitted by EU countries at the end of 2019, as they must serve as essential strategic instruments, guiding national-level decarbonisation efforts in alignment with the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C target, with the objective of diminishing reliance on fossil fuels and facilitating a rapid and just transition toward the clean economy of the future.
To face the imminent threat of climate change, together with the loss of ecosystems and biodiversity and the mounting cost of living crisis due to escalating fossil fuel prices, is of critical importance that Member States respect and do not underscore them.
Indeed, EU Member States are mandated to comprehensively detail their national climate and energy targets, accompanied by relevant policies, measures, and funding until 2030. However, the present NECPs are significantly inadequate for their intended purpose, necessitating substantial strengthening, increased comprehensiveness, and a robust foundation rooted in data and participatory processes.
In light of these concerns, through this webinar, we aim to highlight our thorough assessment of the NECPs. This event showcases our findings, specifically identifying barriers hindering the implementation of Heating and Cooling (H&C) measures. Additionally, we present relevant case studies that shed light on effective strategies and potential solutions to overcome these barriers. Through this event we aspire to contribute valuable insights and foster dialogue for more robust and impactful climate action.
