Spatial Planning and Energy for Communities In All Landscapes (SPECIAL) is funded by Intelligent Energy Europe and is an exciting partnership between eight Town Planning Associations (TPAs) across Europe. It will run for three years with a focus on spatial planning for the deployment of local energy efficiency and renewable energy solutions. The Town and Country Planning Association (TCPA) is the lead partner, with partner planning associations in Sweden, Ireland, Hungary, Italy, Greece, Germany and Austria. The project has been set up to help the TPAs of the partner countries meet the EU’s challenging energy and climate change targets for 2020. It has a number of objectives on exchanging best practice and experience, promoting integrated renewable energy strategies, and building the capacity of the partner planning associations in the planning and delivery of renewable energy solutions. Most importantly, the partners must then share that learning through their professional networks and maximise the dissemination of their training to others, in a multiplier effect.
