LIFE – DoppelPlus

Helping low-income households in Tirol, Austria, become clean energy transition ambassadors.

LIFE DoppelPlus helped low-income people in Tirol, Austria, become clean energy transition ambassadors. The team sent climate protection starter kits to low-income families. They advised around 1 000 households on how to optimise their daily energy consumption. This resulted in a saving of €200 per household each year. They also forged long-term partnerships with energy suppliers, cultural organisations, social housing companies and others and ran a comprehensive communication campaign to raise awareness on energy issues. The project created a win-win situation – for the environment and household budgets.
