An app that examines European Structural andInvestment Funds Open Data on renewable energy to monitor how public institutions achieve their goals for renewable energy and climate change.

STEPS TO ZIP TRANSPARENCY FOR ENERGY

Translates data into visualizations

Easy to understand language

Public online data portal

ENERGYzip uses Open data to enable stakeholders (EU citizens, institutions, NGOs, media) to understand thecorrelation between ESIFs and Eurostat statistics on renewable energy, to seehow well Member States are using funds.

DEMO

A working demo of ENERGYzip has been created during the hackathon.

HOW IT WORKS

Share of renewables as gross final energy consumption by Country:

LEGENDA:

Background intensity: funds. Bubbles: effectiveness.

Example: if a Country has dark background but a small bubble, maybe there is something wrong or the policy is not effective.

OUR GOAL

Stakeholders can easily monitor the effectiveness of regional distribution andimplementation of funds and the efficiency of renewable energy policies.By looking at the maps, for example, they can instantly see if something is wrong with one particular Country.

“Are they using the funds correctly?” ENERGYzip gives alerts based on reliable data, enhancing transparency and pushing Member States to narrow the gaps between resources and needs.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

Public, transparent and eye-catching online platform.

Different levels of complexity: from Member States to municipalities, bridging European level and regional data sources.

Real-time updating/monitoring data and alerts.

Citizens engagement (ex. sharing customized visualization on social media).

Thank you!
