The Final Conference of Mayors in Action and BEAST projects took place in Brussels (Belgium), on 8 February 2017. The Intelligent Energy Europe funded projects Mayors in Action and Beast shared their insights with the aim of providing ideas on how to bridge the gap between planning and implementing a wide range of sustainable energy actions.

The event brought together policy makers and technical staff from local and regional governments, signatories of the Covenant of Mayors, Covenant Supporters and Coordinators, energy agencies, business sector and energy stakeholders. In addition to a great line-up of speakers and experts the free one-day workshop provided an opportunity to exchange and discuss about sustainable energy actions and replication possibilities.

The free one-day workshop featured a round of speed presentations to look at financing and implementing sustainable energy actions, followed by an interactive panel discussion. A “matchmaking lunch”, in which expert hosts facilitated the networking among participants in a series of topical roundtables, concluded the event.
