Tackling energy poverty and air pollution

EU Green Week Partner Event |on Zoom at 13:30 pm CEST

Proper combustion of fuels is essential to minimize impacts on air quality and for efficient use of energy. In large parts of Europe, low-income households often suffer from a combination of poor domestic heating systems, insufficient insulation and limited financial resources to access sustainable energy services.

This event, organised as a partner event of the EU Green Week 2021, focuses on the tight connections between air quality and energy poverty and the multiple wins household energy renovations have for the vulnerable energy consumers.

Confirmed speakers:

Ina Karova, sustainable development expert at the Energy Agency of Plovdiv, Bulgaria.

João Pedro Gouveia, Senior Researcher, PhD at CENSE, FCT-NOVA University of Lisbon.

The event is moderated by the Energy Poverty Advisory Hub project that is coordinated by the Climate Alliance.
