EURBANLAB is an international community, created in 2011 and co-funded by Climate-KIC (European Climate knowledge and innovation community) and its objective is to accelerate urban innovation by linking existing and new urban living labs and their associated stakeholders in Europe by providing a link between learning and expert community, the assessment of solutions and market place.

One important question is “What are the (energy) initiatives at the local scale?” Facing the stakes of sustainability, certain orientations have to be taken into account. The French national framework for environmental policy (Grenelle de l’Environnement) is pushing for a strong decrease in C02 gas emission by 2020 -2030. At the regional scale, the SRCAE (1)(Schema Regional du Climat, de l’Air et de l’Energie) contributes to the project. In 2010, renewables energy represented two percent of total energies. By 2020, the goal will be 20%.
