1 Introduction
The purpose of the PUBLENEF (Support Public Authorities for Implementing Energy Efficiency
Policies) project is to help EU member states to implement useful sustainable energy
policies, by showcasing examples of effective practices from other member states.
Assessment of good practices and needs for energy efficiency policies at national, regional
and local level is the main ‘research’ component of PUBLENEF, which will explore in the
three dimensions (national, regional and local) of the project the capacity and other needs
(such as financing tools, staff expertise, policy procedures etc.) expressed from policy
makers through an analytical stakeholder process. Additionally, it will assimilate the tools
and best practices that can be replicable to other MS for covering these needs.
The objective of this analysis was to gather Good Practice examples, as well as Needs
Assessments from within the member states. We have defined a good practice as a practice
which showcases some of the following traits:
1. Having a broad scope (i.e. applicable to National, Regional and Local levels) 2. Being easy to deliver, with an experienced delivery team 3. Including an innovative approach, or resulted in an innovation being delivered 4. Including a strong financing mechanism 5. Having energy savings potential (kwh) 6. Including an interdisciplinary approach (with multiple professionals & academia
involved in its preparation and/or delivery) 7. Including international co-operation 8. Where the legislative framework offered a good basis for its implementation 9. Having potential opportunity for replication 10. Offering a good return on investment 11. Providing learning opportunities in the future 12. Not being influenced by the economic stability of its country of origin 13. Where the awareness of energy efficiency strongly influenced the project 14. Where unexpected risks did not significantly influence the implementation of the
practice
The main objective is to showcase, and better understand the fundamental drivers of good
practices in EE policy design and implementation (at various administrative levels; national,
regional and local).
This task is comprised of two specific steps:
2.1.1. The preparation of a template for good practice models and
2.1.2. The gathering, selection analysis of the good practices case study reports.
5
This Public Report (Compilation of good practices case study reports) describes the main
results of this task. The template for Good Practices was prepared, with the aim of drawing
out as much useful information from the organisations, while not being too long so as to
discourage organisations from filling it out.
The Good Practice template was designed in an effort to retrieve all the relevant
information, while also remaining as brief as possible in order not to discourage our sample
from filling it out.
The template was given to each partner, who then collected responses. These responses
were then analysed to identify the most suitable ones.
6
2 Template for good practice models
In accordance with the PUBLENEF proposal, the survey identified and examined 55 good
practice case studies at each level: local, regional and national. Each partner contacted the
relevant stakeholders in each country, distributed the questionnaires and collected the
responses. All of the relevant partners later modified the proposed template for the
questionnaire in order to fit their national context. The main points addressed are:
• Technical overview: Technical aspects of the project/ funding scheme (in addition to
meeting some of the beneficiaries and discussing the real benefits citizens may experience).
• Financing mechanism and Q&A session: This is was concerned with the financial
particularities; funding sources, cash flows, funding levels, criteria for draw down, auditing
methods, administration costs etc.
• Project delivery structure: This outlined how the project was delivered on the ground.
Ideally it ought to include an organisational chart, how applicant/ beneficiaries or agents
applied, how they were evaluated, and how internal resources were allocated.
For the purpose of this deliverable, particular emphasis was put on the questions that
focused on SWOT categories to ensure the resulting responses could be subjected to
objective analysis. When trying to decipher the strengths of various practices, a number of
questions were used, such as, previous experiences, the particularities of internal resource
allocation, what professionals were necessary for delivery, and the possibility for
improvement. Questions which were focused on trying to find weaknesses, looked at
unforeseen risks during implementation, and trying to highly how these practices could be
improved.
The opportunities section contained questions aimed at gathered information on
transferability of the Good Practice, role of legislation and international, and cooperation
with academia. The threats section focused on the potential influence of the economic
backdrop to the given practice, and the influence this may have had on the result.
The requirement for each partner was to complete a minimum of 4 responses (i.e. 4 Good
Practices, 1 National Needs Assessment, 1 Regional Needs Assessment and 2 Local Needs
Assessments).
7
3 Gathering, selection and analysis of the good practices case study reports
In accordance with the PUBLENEF proposal, the best practices, which were selected were
examined by the partners in close coordination with managing authorities, and relevant
experts and stakeholders. The most suited 20 case studies were ultimately selected for the
purposes of this report. The selection process was based on criteria such as: level of
efficiency obtained, type of technology, type of financial mechanisms, project delivery
structure, cost-effectiveness, and level of reproducibility (i.e. dependence on country
context). The ‘Good Practice and Needs Assessment’ Questionnaires were issued to all
partners. If necessary, each partner translated the questionnaire to their national language,
and then distributed the questionnaire to the relevant stakeholders.

3.1 Analysis of the Good Practices
3.1.1 SWOT Template Draft
The SWOT evaluation consisted of adding scores from the Strengths and Opportunities
section, and subtracting score from the Weaknesses and Threats section. It needed to be
tailored to suit the final good practice questionnaire, and to reflect the responses expected.
Figure 2. Example of SWOT analysis
For positive categories, no response, response stating N/A or not relating to the questions
were scored with zero points. For negative categories N/A or no response was sometimes
scored with four or even seven (negative) points and therefore, to not provide a response to
these questions automatically influenced the score. The reason behind this decision was that
emphasis was put on certain questions in these negative categories. This correlates well with
the fact that questions in positive categories (Strengths and Weaknesses) provided answers
much more frequently and the questions were more numerous. Otherwise, there would be
no differentiation in scoring between good quality questionnaires and simple or incomplete
questionnaires. As a result, response evaluation consisted of a detailed scale for each type of
response.
The complete SWOT analysis template is available in Appendix 1.

Case Study Presented by: Ireland: Carlow County Council
Name of work programme/project: ClimAtlantic Project
SUMMARY
The project focuses on four essential issues: mobility, energy, territorial management and
social behaviour by developing concrete strategies to be validated through pilot actions. As a
final product, partners created a common strategy for the Atlantic Area, based on the four
thematic strategies. In Ireland a pilot action was developed to reduce the expense and
carbon footprint of Carlow County Council. The pilot action consisted of identifying and
