This project targets the energy retrofit of private and public dwellings in the social housing sector of two regions of Emilia-Romagna by establishing an innovative financing approach, which applies an energy performance contracting (EPC) model combined with a new "green lease" concept based on the improved energy performance of the housing units (Energy Performance Tenancy Agreement - EPTA). It envisages to trigger sustainable energy investments of €15.29 million in 622 dwellings.

This organisation campaigned for additional financial support for people with cancer who were in particular need and struggling with their energy bills. Nearly one in five people with cancer turn off the heating, even though they're cold, because they're worried about paying their energy bills. Not enough people with cancer who are terminally ill, having treatment or receiving certain benefits get the financial help they need to keep their homes warm. 

Around 4 million UK households are in fuel poverty, unable to afford to live in a warm, dry home. National Energy Action is the national charity working to end fuel poverty in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

The NRFC is an independent and volunteer-led campaign which brings together a range of voices from the corporate, charitable and public sectors to raise the profile of fuel poverty. The NRFC came into existence in 1975 with the single aim of ensuring that every household is able to afford adequate heat, light and power. Today it is still campaigning to protect the right of all people in the UK to live in a warm, dry and well lit home.
