The PLEEC model is a guide for city planners in European cities to develop their Energy Efficiency Action Plan (EEAP) in order to meet the EU 20-20-20 goals. The guide consists of the PLEEC partners´ joint experiences from developing six EEAPs. By taking part of the model content, through literature studies, checklists, movies and city partners' advice, the reader gets a strong base to initiate the Action Plan. One of the lessons from PLEEC is that understanding local conditions in different cities is key to developing an EEAP that can be successfully implemented. No action can be copied from one city to another but by sharing experiences we can come a long way towards a more energy efficient future.
The PLEEC model is one of the core outputs of the PLEEC project.
the six “PLEEC model cities” in the second part of the event: Each city has developed during PLEEC project an Energy Efficiency Action Plan clearly outlining the goals and strategies how to become more energy efficient and a true energy smart city in the future. As all PLEEC cities are unique and have very special preconditions every city is choosing an individual way towards the sustainable future. All experiences made throughout the project´s lifetime are synthesized in the model of energy efficiency and sustainable city planning accessible online at http://model.pleecproject.eu/ and presented by Lotta Ek (Eskilstuna municipality). “Green Thoughts, Green Futures” - another core output of the PLEEC project and showcased by Annika Kunnasvirta (Turku University of Applied Sciences) - is a publication which summarizes the PLEEC results in a popularized format, describing the most relevant aspects of energy efficiency in key urban fields from a city perspective: the technologies, thoughts, processes and innovations that are already underway yet in need of more work - “peppered with” energy smart city success stories.
