Fighting Energy Poverty in Central Europe

Many people in central Europe struggle to keep their homes warm or afford essential energy, especially in rural and border regions with older buildings and heating systems. Yet authorities often measure the problem differently, making it hard to compare needs or transfer successful support across borders. Fight4CE adapts results from earlier Interreg projects into a shared toolkit that helps local authorities identify vulnerable households, choose suitable measures and involve residents. Five territories will test the approach, while a permanent task force and joint strategy will support wider policy uptake.
