Turning the Tide: Paving the Way for Energy Poverty Alleviation
EPAH International Annual Conference in Barcelona
Organised by the Directorate-General for Energy, the Energy Poverty Advisory Hub international annual conference is taking place on 15-16 October 2024 in Barcelona, Spain. This annual meeting promises to be a crucial gathering of local governments, policymakers, experts, and stakeholders dedicated to addressing energy poverty and fostering sustainable solutions at the local level.
National and local governments in Spain are mobilised to address energy poverty, including by applying for technical assistance to develop local actions through the Energy Poverty Advisory Hub calls. Barcelona, a leader in the climate and energy transition, has made addressing energy poverty a key priority. The city stands out for its proactive sustainability initiatives, comprehensive social services, and commitment to affordable housing. Barcelona's support for renewable energy projects, green infrastructure, and innovative housing solutions demonstrates its dedication to a sustainable future. By hosting the 2024 Energy Poverty Advisory Hub international annual conference in Barcelona, we aim to reflect on their strong commitment to sustainable policies and initiatives.
The event is organised in collaboration with the Provincial Deputation of Barcelona (Diputació de Barcelona), the city of Barcelona, the European Committee of the Regions and the European Economic and Social Committee with the support of the Ecoserveis association.
