Summary of the Doctoral Thesis
Anda Jēkabsone, Riga Technical University, Latvia
The EU has prioritized mitigating climate change, aiming to limit global warming to below 1.5 °C or 2 °C compared to pre-industrial levels. However, the latest IPCC report suggests that the existing policies are insufficient to meet this goal. Sustainable planning in municipalities is crucial for reducing risks and achieving global goals but it must be fair and avoid energy poverty. The objective of the Doctoral Thesis is to develop a methodology and recommendations for the implementation of systematic approach in municipal energy and climate management in order to ensure clear progress towards achieving climate neutrality goals, highlighting the role of energy management system in initiating specific actions.
