Social housing in Warsaw is often energy inefficient, and houses lower-income residents who are more likely to experience financial burdens. Making energy-efficiency improvements to this housing stock is crucial for addressing energy poverty and tackling climate change in the city. Yet, inconsistent data and inadequate tools are hampering progress and impeding roll-out.
Die C40 ICA Fund supported Warsaw’s Carbon-neutral and Affordable Retrofits for Everyone in Need (CARE) project, an innovative tool that allows the city to identify where energy-efficiency renovation will have the biggest impact on both people and emissions reduction.
The project consulted representatives from various stakeholder groups, fostering cross-sectoral and interdisciplinary cooperation, and the results are already being shared through city peer-to-peer exchanges.
The project has contributed to the city’s vision of reducing energy poverty among frontline residents; improving housing conditions, health, and wellbeing; and ensuring cost-effective climate change mitigation actions, in line with Warsaw’s Climate Action Plan.
Die C40 Die Inclusive Climate Action (ICA) Stedefonds is ontwerp om stede te help om klimaatprojekte te ontwikkel en te implementeer met billikheids- en insluitingsbeginsels as kern. As deel van die 2023-2024-program, C40 het ses wêreldstede ondersteun om klimaatprojekte oor 'n tydperk van 12-18 maande te ontwikkel en te lewer wat inklusief, billik is en alle inwoners bevoordeel.
