European Commission - Intelligent Energy eLibrary - Local/Regional Energy Management

This website is one section of the four part Intelligent Energy eLibrary that includes items funded under the Intelligent Energy Europe (IEE) programme and a selection of relevant instruments picked from over 2,500 EU funded projects (under Altener and Save, CIVITAS, Structural and regional funds, LIFE, RTD 2002-2006 and Phare). In addition, nationally and regionally funded tools and guidebooks have been included from the EU 27 Member States, Norway, Croatia, Iceland, the US, Canada and some international organisations.

This section covers Local/Regional Energy Management and is further divided into various sections covering Islands, Regions, Rural Areas and Urban Areas.

The aim of this inventory is to disseminate good practice, advice and practical instruments throughout Europe and beyond. Here businesses, energy professionals, researchers and policymakers alike can profit from a wide range of freely available material to help them in their everyday work. The IEe-library will also be a good starting point for (future) applicants and contractors to the IEE programme, to allow their projects to save time and costs by profiting from available tools and guidebooks rather than duplicating them. All the tools and guidebooks included in this inventory are available free, ready to download and use. Most are in English, but many are also available in other European languages.

The quickest and easiest way to use this library is simply to go to the section on the topic that interests you most and browse through the descriptions of the tools and guidebooks, alternatively an advanced search may be carried out by selecting multiple criteria such as topic, target audience, type of tool, keyword, language and country.
