SUMMARY:10th European Conference for Sustainable Cities and Towns
DESCRIPTION:The 10th European Conference on Sustainable Cities & Towns (ESCT) will take place on 1-3 October in Aalborg\, Denmark. \nAll cities\, partners and experts seeking to contribute to the sustainable transformation of our cities and regions are cordially invited to attend the 2024 edition of European Conference on Sustainable Cities & Towns\, which also marks the 30th Anniversary of the Aalborg Charter (1994) and the 20th Anniversary of the Aalborg Commitments (2004). To mark the occasion\, as well as respond to the needs of the ongoing climate emergency\, we are setting our highest bar for success yet. \nWorkshop: “Powering renewable energy solutions through circular strategies” which will take place on 2 October\, 14:00-15:30. \nEurope must transition towards sustainable energy production and sharply increase the share of renewables in the energy mix to deliver on the Paris Agreement. Ambitious policies have been proposed\, including the EU Rooftop Strategy\, requiring PVs on all new public and commercial buildings by 2026. But what happens to PV panels when their lifespan is over? At the same time\, energy storage is critical to make renewable energy reliable for large scale deployment\, and storage capacity needs to triple by 2030 and increase tenfold by 2050. But how do we secure a sustainable and just value chain of the materials needed to build them?Circular strategies address both ends of the value chain: materials needed to produce these technologies as well as the waste that is produced. Explore the crossroads between renewable energy and a circular economy and discuss the strategies cities are employing to facilitate this transition. \nDiscover more
