| Summary: | Smarter Energy Communities in Northern and Arctic Regions (SECURE) project is a project funded by the Northern Periphery and Arctic Programme (NPA). The project runs for three years, from May 2016 to the end of April 2019. SECURE is implemented by eight partners in six countries (Ireland, Sweden, United Kingdom, Finland, Canada, Faroe Islands) and is coordinated by the European Regions Network for the Application of Communications Technology (ERNACT). The project aims at increasing the capacity of the local authorities regarding energy efficiency and use of renewable energy. The best practices have been executed in the SECURE partner regions and have involved public and private instances as well as companies and associations. The practices are examples of actions that can be taken to reduce the carbon footprint and eventually lead to behavioral change by example. The partners have sought for resource-efficient and sustainable practices that can be transferred directly or modified before use in the new setting.
