How are the cities of Munich, Budapest and Vienna working to decarbonize their heating system? Well, if you missed out on the presentation, go check out the summary of the workshop 👇
Key takeways:
🔥 Cities' freedom of decision. The pace of this transition often hangs on the city's own regulatory powers. Vienna, for instance, can enact energy regulations independently to phase out fossil fuel appliances, whereas Budapest relies heavily on decisions made by the central government.
🔢 Data availability. A crucial initial step is to assess the potential for renewable heat and draft a comprehensive inventory of the building stock. Understanding the current energy landscape within the city is essential and should involve collaboration with relevant stakeholders, including energy system operators.
🤝 Public awareness. Citizen engagement is vital f and any renewable alternatives must promote more stable and cost-effective energy bills.
🏰 Neighborhood approach: Many cities working on local heating and cooling plans are embracing integrated neighborhood concepts. This holistic approach is instrumental in addressing both energy and building challenges effectively.
