Italy will host the third meeting of Task 2 of the IEA Cities TCP – Data for Urban Energy Planning. The event will take place at the ENEA offices at Kilometro Rosso, Bergamo. The opening session will be led by Giulia Monteleone, Director of the ENEA Department of Energy Technologies and Renewable Sources.
The meeting will also serve as an opportunity to launch and strengthen the Italian research network for this initiative. During the event, B2B meetings between ENEA management and local stakeholders will be held to foster collaboration.
Task 2 focuses on urban energy planning and addresses strategic topics such as data collection and management, energy poverty, citizen engagement and training, and effective communication.
The platform provides local administrations with the chance to share experiences and best practices, analyze case studies, and identify tools to accelerate the transformation of urban energy systems. The initiative also aims to reinforce cooperation between the scientific community, local authorities, and key stakeholders.
The IEA TCP Cities program promotes international collaboration on urban sustainability, integrated energy planning, and multi-level governance, in coordination with initiatives such as the Urban Transitions Mission (UTM).
Italy participates officially through ENEA, appointed by the Ministry of Environment and Energy Security as the national Contracting Party. Italian representatives on the IEA TCP Cities Executive Committee are Roberta Boniotti and Paola Clerici Maestosi.
