We have just received confirmation from the RURENER programme that we have been accepted as the UK partner to the EU wide consortium. The project is funded by Intelligent Energy Europe and aims to introduce “Carbon Neutrality” across rural communities throughout Europe. Communities are encouraged to introduce themselves to the programme and will have access to a variety of tools and information to help them reduce their carbon emissions on a community level.
Based on a roadmap which will be formally launched shortly, the programme recognises that different communities will have various approaches to ultimately achieve carbon neutrality. Examples of various tools which will be made available include sophisticated carbon measuring techniques designed to be used across communities.
Ruralnet Futures role includes the deployment of a Wordpress Multi-User blog, containing several country [sub] sites which sit under the main programme website. This enables the various country leads to update their specific activity in the relevant language, whilst still ensuring the EU wide programme remains connected. To learn more about this initiative, please contact us.
