WHAT IS CONCERTO ?
CONCERTO will support
concrete initiatives of local communities
working towards
a completely integrated energy policy,
harmonizing a substantial use of RES
with innovative technologies and systems
to minimize energy consumption and
to improve the quality of citizens’ lives.
DIRECTORATE GENERAL FOR
ENERGY AND TRANSPORT
WHAT IS A CONCERTO
COMMUNITY ?
A CONCERTO community is a
Local community
- in which politicians, planners, developers and citizens
- actively co-operate to develop and demonstrate
- high degrees of decentralised energy supply
- from various sources of renewable energy,
- together with a conscientious application
- of the leading energy efficiency measures
- in a symbiotic way
DIRECTORATE GENERAL FOR
ENERGY AND TRANSPORT
How can my Community
Benefit from CONCERTO?
Global:
• contribute to EU objective - 12% of RES
• CO2 reduction
• security of EU energy supplies
Local:
• reduce energy consumption (and costs),
• create local employment and wealth,
• increase local control,
• improve the local quality of life,
• support sustainable development, ..
DIRECTORATE GENERAL FOR

Typical characteristics
of a CONCERTO Project
A typical CONCERTO project should ideally involve 3
communities :
• of a representative size
(1.000 - 100.000 citizens or equivalent)
• in 3 different countries
• working together towards shared ambitious goals
• produce visible and recognisable impacts
• enjoy a strong political commitment
• already have plans for sustainable development

Essential elements
of a CONCERTO project
• Demonstration of innovative approaches to the
integration of RES and RUE technologies,
• Initiatives to encourage the sharing of policies, plans
and experiences between communities,
• Monitoring / analysis / socio-economic research
- measurement of energy flows, community
performance indicators, progress reporting
(common approach for all CONCERTO contracts)
• Targeted dissemination to other Communities
• Replication potential
DIRECTORATE GENERAL FOR
ENERGY AND TRANSPORT
Typical consortia will include :
•
•
•
•
•
•
Local / regional / municipal authorities
Utilities / ESCOs
Energy agencies
Technology providers
Energy users
Research institutes, etc.
• Participation of Accession States is encouraged
• Balanced sharing of effort between partners
• Limited number of contract partners
– all active and seriously committed

Types of
CONCERTO Communities
Urban (domestic, industrial),
Isolated (rural, island)
Under development or refurbishment,
Communities in clearly defined geographical
areas / zones
• Part of a city, small town, group of villages,
DIRECTORATE GENERAL FOR
ENERGY AND TRANSPORT
CONCERTO projects:
Technological Requirements
• Highly efficient energy saving & energy
management measures
• Significant increase in the share of RES supply
(green electricity, heating / cooling)
• Polygeneration / CHP / district heating (ideally
using biomass)
• Eco-buildings integrating the supply side and
demand side in a symbiotic way
• Intelligent management / control of distributed
generation and grid networks
