AREA 21+ implements an innovative system appproach for low-emission urban districts to foster local energy transitions: The Energy Improvement District (EID)
AREA 21 is now AREA 21+!
With yesterday's kick-off meeting for our new project, we are happy to go from developing the EID (Energy Improvement District) concept to its implementation. Stay tuned! @InterregBSR@co2mmunity@spbpu_official@HCUHamburg@EU_ENV

Our EID concept is fully transferrable, spill-over effects or adaptations can already be observed e.g. in Finland (national information & counselling campaign) and Russia (integration in students’ course curricula)
Did you know that citizens and other local actors co-developed 134 actions in our seven pilots to be implemented in the coming years? For @AREA21_project ownership and participation is key!
Did you know that 176 people were involved in the co-development of local strategies and action plans? Among them e.g. homeowners, energy utilities and energy agencies, public property owners, hospital and university staff, students, academia, politicians and public authorities

In the coming weeks we will present key info on our pilots to show what we are doing and hoping for but also what risks we face. Stay tuned for our 4 EIDs Q&A..
Yury from our EID Polytechnic University St. Petersburg targets to involve students and university staff to raise awareness and reduce energy use. Energy efficiency is part of education programs and the replacement of heating points will help to reduce energy as well.
