Topic of the Month
Each month a relevant topic and several sub-topics are covered in detail. For the Topic of the Month, content following a common thread is developed by the BUILD UP Editorial Board in collaboration with the Board of Ambassadors and other relevant experts in the field. This includes producing articles, case studies, webinars and more, all in line with the specific topic selected. Relevant events are also identified and highlighted.
Topics of the Month are announced at the end of the previous month in our website and newsletter. Please write us if you wish to know more about our upcoming topics of the month.
This month, the ToM is 'Energy communities and citizen-led initiatives for sustainability in buildings', with subtopics such as:
- Affordable energy
- Renewable source implementation at local level
- Fight against energy poverty
and more!
Collective, non-discriminatory, citizen-driven initiatives that support the clean energy transition and energy communities start mainly as renewable energy projects. These initiatives are increasingly involved in the progressive renovation and decarbonisation of the building sector. They aim at collective social and environmental well-being rather than profit, often with the additional objective of combating energy poverty by making the cost of energy more affordable.
