SECAP

SECAP is a strategic project for the cross-border area Italy-Slovenia. It was born to jointly address the issue of climate change in place, in order to find unified and shared solutions to mitigate the effects and reduce the vulnerability of the territories. Indeed, the project wants to create a strategy for low carbon emissions, with the identification of specific policies and measures to protect the climate, which are in contrast with the changes induced by human activities and the effect of greenhouse gases, and that they adopt instead adaptation and mitigation measures for climate change.

Precisely because of its specificity, SECAP wants to support the transaction towards a low carbon economy (OT4), realizing concrete actions to support the implementation of territorial policies on energy efficiency and the fight against air pollution, both at regional level ( of Friuli Venezia Giulia and Veneto), which national (Republic of Slovenia).
The project is also considered strategic because it wants to produce a substantial change in the energy planning of the cross-border area (unit strategy), to the advantage of a better awareness of the territories of the need to direct their guidelines and investments towards renewable energy, as well as to improve the ability of public administrations and municipalities to adopt and develop shared SECAPs, in their structure, between cross-border territories.

The strategic dimension of SECAP, based on the results of all the project activities, is also guaranteed by the elaboration of guidelines for the Municipalities that want to improve their energy planning.

Main expected results are:

study on the impact of climate change on the Program Area through methodological and EIB reports for the Municipalities involved. For this purpose, a common methodology addressed to PAs will be tested for an efficient and low-cost definition of BEIs and IEMs (inventory & emissions monitoring).
The cooperation among PPs with consolidated scientific skills, together with the experiences brought by subjects who “govern” the territories at various levels, will ensure effective cross-border planning for the reduction of carbon emissions (OS2.1 of the CP ITA SLO). The exchange of good practices, but also the capitalization of previous and successful experiences on the topic of energy efficiency (with particular attention to the Covenant of Mayors), will lead to the drafting of a joint strategy to optimize the consumption of existing resources;
creation of an inventory of strategies, measures and projects already defined and useful for increasing urban resilience, creation of bilingual online databases of statistics and data on energy / climate / environment and an Italian-Slovenian atlas of the vulnerability of the territories with insights on an urban scale.
