Brussels sustainable energy actor map
There is no lack of environmental initiatives in Brussels, but awareness of those initiatives may be limited. The Brussels sustainable energy actor map acts as a center of knowledge for people to access the many sustainable energy initiatives in the Capital Region. The mapping of various organizations active in these environmental efforts may lead to future collaboration in which people exchange best practices, identify gaps in initiatives, and become involved in local sustainable energy efforts.
