Compete4SECAP (C4S) project (H2020) Fenntartható Fenntartó (C4S) projekt (H2020)

The case is an international (H2020) project of GreenDependent Institute (GDI) by which GDI helped 4 Hungarian municipalities/local authorities to address mitigation and adaptation issues related mainly to climate change, but also other sustainability areas, such as energy poverty, energy democracy, and active energy citizenship. Within the C4S project GDI, together with the participating municipalities, accomplished tasks related to three main activity areas: 1) Development of a SECAP – Sustainable Energy and Climate Action Plan (based on a pre-existing SEAP) with the active involvement of local stakeholders and citizens. 2) Development of an energy management system for several municipal buildings based on the ISO 50001 standard and initiation of training events for the public employees working in those buildings. 3) Organisation of a 1-year-long energy-saving competition for municipal employees and thus also raising their attention to other sustainability, energy-citizenship-related issues.
