The First Repower Regions Newsletter is Here
We’re excited to share that the first edition of the Repower Regions newsletter is now available for free download. It introduces our ambitious three-year Erasmus+ Alliance for Innovation project, led by Kildare County Council and powered by twelve partners from ten European countries. Together, we’re tackling one of Europe’s greatest challenges: how to heat, cool, and power our buildings more sustainably while preparing the workforce with the skills needed for a green future.

🔹 Repower Regions at a Glance: Learn how the project is building pathways to a decarbonised, energy-efficient Europe.
🔹 Project Rationale & Key Objectives: Our vision for greener skills and stronger regional alliances.

Why It Matters
Heating and cooling account for nearly 40% of Europe’s total energy use and one-third of emissions. With most of Europe’s buildings built before 2001, the need for skilled professionals in green and digital technologies has never been greater. Repower Regions is responding by creating new curricula, training materials, and regional alliances that will equip educators, professionals, and businesses to lead the clean energy transition.
