The Forum for Local Action on Energy Efficient Behaviour, or the Energy Behaviour Forum, supports local and regional authorities in promoting energy-efficient behaviour. It serves as a knowledge sharing platform where local and regional authorities can exchange experiences related to energy efficiency projects and awareness campaigns. It will provide tools, good practices and capacity training for local and regional authorities to help them build effective short-term, medium-term, and long-term strategies, initiatives, and projects. 

These initiatives specifically target engagement with citizens and private sector stakeholders to boost energy efficient behaviour and, ultimately, overall energy efficiency. The platform has been developed in close cooperation with both local and regional authorities, as well as behavioural and energy efficiency experts. Changing how we consume energy can deliver immediate gains in Europe’s energy resilience while addressing climate change and environmental degradation. ​

Behavioural measures have long been part of EU and national energy-saving strategies, with various initiatives supporting local and regional implementation. In recent years, behaviour change has gained increasing recognition as essential for reducing energy use to sustainable levels. 

The Energy Behaviour Forum is developed by a pan-European consortium.
