Engagement strategies: Getting buy-in from and for households in energy poverty

Energy poverty is not a fatality and solutions exist. The cities involved in the POWER UP project wish to improve the lives of those who are struggling with keeping their homes comfortable. From collective self-consumption to the set-up of an energy community, each POWER UP pilot is exploring innovative ways – together with people in vulnerable situations.

As they advance on giving life to their respective new energy service (based on different business models), the cities want to extend the circle of beneficiaries. This is why each of them has drafted an engagement strategy. This document guides the consortium partners in the local outreach activities related to the POWER UP activities. It describes the scope and means of awareness-raising and communication activities towards vulnerable households around their previously defined POWER UP social energy player.

This document presents the engagement strategies of the following cities: Eeklo (Belgium), Valencia (Spain), Roznov pod Radhostem (Czech Republic), the Italian group of municipalities UCSA and Heerlen (The Netherlands).

It is the deliverable D3.3 of the POWER UP project.
