Promoting social energy services to fight energy poverty: Communication insights

The POWER UP project started in 2021 shortly before energy poverty became a highly political topic. It was launched with the premise that regional and local public authorities have a strong role to play in fighting energy poverty through long-term measures. That is why one important objective of POWER UP is also to communicate not only the energy poverty topic, but to give visibility to the solutions the cities are designing. The mission of POWER UP is not only to show that this is possible, but also to encourage others to follow the steps of its five pilot cases.


In this document, we list the communication and dissemination activities that have been carried out by all project partners during the first phase of the POWER UP project. We talk about the communication and dissemination activities at EU, national and regional levels that happened between September 2021 and February 2023. For a start, we also explain how we framed the message so as to bring the topic into the minds of stakeholders of all kinds (lawmakers, local leaders and citizens) to maximize impact.

This report (revised in 2025) is the deliverable D7.3 Report on Communication and Dissemination Activities for the POWER UP project.
