Origin of the project
The launch of Covenant of Mayors initiatives by EU commission in January 2008 had represented a milestone for local public authorities in playing an active role in energy policies. Around 1.200 municipalities have already signed the Covenant and a great part of them are small municipalities.
The first commitment in order to be part of the Covenant is the designing of the Sustainable Energy Action Plan (SEAP): the key document that shows how the local government will reach its GHG emission target.
