DATA4ACTION publishable Report

The general purpose of DATA4ACTION was the establishment of long-term data exchange models in sustainable energy planning, through cooperation between public authorities and energy data providers. Long-term collaboration models were implemented through bilateral data exchange cooperation agreements and with the development of twelve regional observatories, representing more than six thousand municipalities.

DATA4ACTION emphasised five objectives:

1. Improve public authorities’ access to energy data for the better design and monitoring of SEAPs;
2. Mobilise public authorities and energy data providers in a win-win partnership;
3. Facilitate collaboration through establishing, or further developing, regional energy observatories;
4. Demonstrate active energy data exchange collaboration models in the twelve European partner regions; and
5. Support knowledge transfer and replication in other European regions.

In this publication, We are sharing the findings and recommendations from our project in the hopes of supporting further cooperation between public authorities and data providers to facilitate access to energy data.
