L’énergie à la portée de tous
Présentation
The challenges of climate change and the tensions in the global energy market have led the European Union to set ambitious energy management objectives as part of the Europe 2020 strategy, and in particular to « support the transition to a low carbon economy in all sectors” in the context of the thematic priorities for the 2014-2020 programming period.Cross-border territories face specific difficulties with regards to planning and the differences between local, regional and national energy policies on either side of the border.
They are consequently hindered in their implementation of European common energy policies and strategies, despite the asset that the different national approaches could otherwise represent in the context of cross-border cooperation, allowing the transfer of know-how and the development of synergies.
