On 15 September 2020, Alexandra Garatzogianni and Michael Fribus from the H2020 PLATOON project & the Knowledge & Tech Transfer department of Leibniz Information Center for Science & Technology (TIB-KTT) visited the AREA 21 live session called “Developing ICT Tools for District-Scale Smart Energy Management”.

AREA 21 (Baltic Smart City Areas for the 21st Century) follows a cooperative approach to develop integrated energy efficiency measures at neighbourhood level. In this context, the project partners are developing so-called EIDs (“Energy Improvement Districts”) in various cities in the Baltic Sea Region.
