Is it compulsory for municipalities willing to prepare a SECAP to also develop an energy poverty assessment and set related targets, in addition to GHG reduction and adaptation targets?

  Reporting on energy poverty is a mandatory requirement for all new Covenant of Mayors (CoM) signatories. Any municipality submitting a new Sustainable Energy and Climate Action Plan (SECAP or monitoring report must include an energy poverty diagnosis, clear goals, and at least one key energy poverty action. For more information, refer to the new SECAP Guidebook. Answered by Monica Salvia
