Numerous informational events will be held from 3 to 15 February to answer questions about the application process. As coordinator of the initiative, Climate Alliance is organising two events of its own:

EPAH is the EU's leading initiative with the vision to eradicate energy poverty and accelerate the just energy transition in European municipalities. The team offers support as well as online services, such as the EPAH Atlas with inspiring examples of local action or online training on energy poverty. The first online course with information about the initiative and the topic of energy poverty is now available online.
