The Policy Paper, "Alleviating Energy Poverty in Romania and beyond", was authored by Andreas Schneller and Jakob Hoffmann of adelphi and Anca Sinea of the UBB.
The workshop started with an overview of the lessons learned throughout the course of the project, the challenges and difficulties faced, and how these were overcome. The focus here was on the challenges of collecting data from diverse sources from both the public and private sector.
The map allows the user to apply different filters based on the drivers or associated indicators of energy poverty and thus see where the phenomenon is clustered. The map is an important output for the project as it allows us to identify where energy poverty is prevalent and match it with the energy consumption data for those areas to find potential correlations between energy poverty and higher GHG emissions.
We seized the opportunity presented by everyone working from home and all events being cancelled to conclude our energy poverty expert interviews with nearly two dozen interviews conducted. The qualitative data gathered throughout these interviews will be instrumental in informing our policy paper.
