Energy Efficiency and Climate Policies: a Scoping meeting for FSR Climate

This workshop aimed to provide a general overview of the role of energy policies for climate change mitigation. It was organised in three sessions on the general framework, research needs and gaps, and ex-post analysis of applications. The event was designed as a scoping meeting for future research activities of the FSR Climate Unit in this area and also to explore collaborative work with other academic and non-academic institutions operating in the field.
