A web tool for sustainable energy communities

摘要

Although the Covenant of Mayors (CoM) initiative embraces all regions and is not intended solely for large cities, fewer regions with rural characteristics have adhered to this initiative. In this respect, particular emphasis has to be laid on them towards 'greening' rural communities economies. The main aim of this paper is to present an interactive supportive framework realised into web application, thus consisting a tool for the elaboration of rural communities' sustainable energy action plan (SEAP). The web tool provides the necessary support to the user, in order to significantly reduce the required elaboration time for the SEAP's development.
