Project summary


Why SCEPA?

Energy poverty has been deemed a major challenge by the European Commission. EU-surveys in 2021 found that energy poverty applied to up to 125 million citizens already. Due to recent geo-political events energy prices are record high, and energy poverty is rapidly increasing and intensifying. Proven measures to alleviate energy poverty are available but are only applicable in local conditions and unable to reach all off the growing target groups. Especially hard-to-reach vulnerable households require tailor-made approaches. 


Scaling up existing approaches

Energy poverty is often just one of the multi-social problems households are dealing with and should therefore be addressed integral. Instead of reinventing the wheel, SCEPA gathers and enhances existing effective energy poverty approaches in order to be able to upscale initiatives. The approach to energy poverty varies across different cities in North West Europe depending on local circumstances, policy frameworks and available resources. SCEPA examines and compares these diverse approaches to identify best practises. 


Scaling solutions. Empowering communities. Fighting energy poverty.
