The Regional Program for the Development of Renewable Energy Sources for the Podkarpackie Region was adopted by the Sejmik of the Podkarpackie Region by Resolution No. XLIII/874/14 of 24 February 2014. The purpose of this document was to organize the issues related to the development of renewable energy sources in the Podkarpackie Region and to indicate the directions of their development, as well as to improve decision-making mechanisms. The adoption of this document was aimed at fulfilling international obligations to increase the share of RES in the final balance of gross energy consumption with respect to the regional level. The purpose of the document was to ensure sustainable development of the voivodeship in terms of renewable energy and to facilitate the implementation of activities in the field of renewable energy for potential investors, indicating, among other things, areas with favourable conditions for individual types of locations and limitations associated with these locations. The document, which has the rank of a strategic document, facilitated the investment process, including shortening the procedures related to obtaining necessary permits. The programme contains, among other things, a diagnosis of the conditions for development of RES, indicates potential and recommended development directions for renewable energy sources, divided into hydro, wind, solar, biomass and geothermal energy.

The new Basilicata Multi-fund ROP (ESF + ERDF) 2021-2027 is currently under preparation, and will be built on the experience and success of the previous 2014/2020 programming period. The choice of a Multi-fund ROP (ESF + ERDF) was suggested by the need to design interventions that act on complex areas with different objectives, using multiple tools, in order to ensure greater synergy between the actions taken and the expected results.
Specifically related to this project, is worth mentioning that in the 2014/20 ESIF OPs aerospace was a RIS3 priority, and this will be confirmed for the new programming period. Furthermore, the new ROP will continue supporting investments in R&I, the development of the regional aerospace cluster (CLAS), strengthening the demand for innovation by Public Authorities through tools such as Pre-Commercial Procurement. AXIS 5 of the previous ROP, “Environmental protection and efficient use of resources” will be developed, promoting interventions for the protection of natural areas of strategic importance for the regional ecological network. Finally, the AXIS 4 of the 2014/20 ESF ROP, “Strengthening institutional and administrative capacity” will be reinforced, supporting the up skilling of public official and the digitalization of the regional governance.

Riga Development program 2022-2027 is an implementation document of Riga Sustainable development Plan 2030. Development program's strategy consists of 9 priorities (e.g. Convenient and environment-friendly urban mobility , Urban environment promoting quality of life , Good environmental quality & sustainable urban ecosystem for climate change mitigation , Accessible and quality education , Affordable housing, Modern and open city governance, A healthy and socially inclusive city , A competitive city with an innovative economy , Diverse and authentic cultural environment) and 5 horizontal topics including Climate Neutrality and Action plan that contains a yearly updated investment plan. The updates of investment plan are based on Strategic monitoring reports, however, the Strategic monitoring reports are lacking data-based justification. This could be facilitated with detection of urban environment changes that are obtained by using satellite data, ensuring data-based decisions in the investment plan. We are looking for data, tools and methods to support paticulary the priorities: Urban environment promoting quality of life, Good environmental quality & sustainable urban ecosystem for climate change mitigation. Due to climate change, quality and networks of Public and green spaces are becoming more and more important for quality of life in dense urban areas.

The ambition of this policy instrument is to provide the Occitanie / Pyrénées-Méditerranée Region with an adaptation strategy to reduce the vulnerability of Occitanie’s territories and activities, limit the damage caused by extreme events, offset financial, social and economic costs for the community and strengthen protective natural ecosystems.
This Plan will be based on three levers to promote the resilience of the territory:
1. Anticipate and adapt: actions needed to anticipate natural risks, particularly by improving knowledge, as well as actions to prevent and reduce vulnerability;
2. Plan, repair and rebuild: actions covering a broad spectrum, from land use planning to redevelopment following severe crises or in anticipation of future ones;
3. Promote innovation, cooperation and action by all stakeholders (including citizens): develop research and experimentation, learn and innovate to decrease territorial vulnerability, provide adapted, efficient and sustainable collective responses.
Through this “climate change adaptation plan to better protect populations, goods and nature”, the Occitanie/Pyrénées-Méditerranée Region expresses its strong commitment to act within the framework of its competences, as well as more broadly to support its partners and territories in order to improve their resilience and thus protect their populations, economic activities and natural heritage.

Flood management has been a priority for Wallonia for many years. In 2003, Wallonia established the PLUIES Plan. A few years later, in 2007, the European Union gave a major boost to this issue with the Flooding Directive (2007/60/EC). This directive was transposed into Walloon law in the Water Code (articles D53.1 to D53.11). The Transversal Flood Group (TGI) implements it in Wallonia.
The Flood Directive aims to establish a framework for the assessment and management of flood risks. It aims to reduce the negative consequences of floods on human health, the environment, cultural heritage and economic activity. As floods know no borders, a coordinated and cross-border approach is essential and is widely advocated. It comprises three actions, to be reassessed every 6 years: (1) to assess the flood risk, (2) to map it and then (3) to manage it by implementing measures included in strategic plans (Flood Risk Management Plans - FRMP). To monitor and jointly develop the FRMP, a large network of stakeholders has been set up for each sub-basin: the Sub-Basin Technical Committees.
In Wallonia, given the density of housing, the entire territory is considered vulnerable to the risk of flooding. In this sense, different tools have been developed to meet the objectives of the Directive, such as flood hazard and floodplain mapping, a database of flood records (BRell) and predictive models. All these tools can benefit from further integration of EO.

Regional Law 11/2004 “Rules for land use and landscape governance” establishes criteria, guidelines, methods and contents of planning tools for the achievement of the following purposes:
promotion and implementation of sustainable development policies in the regional territory; protection of the regional cultural heritage and the quality of urban and extra-urban settlements, specifically through the redevelopment and environmental recovery of existing aggregates, with particular reference to the safeguarding of historic centers; protection of the rural and mountain landscape and of areas of naturalistic importance; use of new territorial resources only when there are no alternatives to the reorganization and requalification of the existing settlement fabric; making the towns and the territory safe from seismic and hydrogeological risks; coordination of the dynamics of the regional territory with national and European development policies.

These purposes are pursued, in compliance with the principles of subsidiarity and efficiency, by:
the simplification of planning procedures; the adoption and use of a unified and accessible Spatial Data Infrastructure; the involvement of citizens, economic and social representatives and associations; the recognition by the municipalities of direct responsibility in the management of their own territory.

The Azorean Energy Strategy 2030 (EAE2030) provides a strategy that sets policies to address the current situational needs of an insular, archipelagic, and outermost region in terms of exploiting the potential offered by its natural resources and technological innovations, in line with national and international commitments. The EAE2030 would act as a guiding instrument to achieve the goals of promoting economy efficiency, making it less dependent on external energy sources. Its main objectives are the guarantee of security of supply, the reduction of energy costs and the reduction of GHG emissions. The pursuit of the objectives identified above is based on the application of three guiding principles: Energy efficiency – by adopting new technologies, processes, and changing behaviours, in order to develop a rational and sufficient use of energy; Electrification – by speeding up the replacement of energy vectors reliant on imports; Decarbonisation – by reducing GHG emissions through the placement of low-carbon energy sources.
In the scope of EAE2030, SOLENERGE will finance the purchase of solar photovoltaic systems for self-consumption by individuals or enterprises in the Azores, funded by the Resilience and Recovery Plan. Through the use of the IDEiA platform and spatial data, the Regional Government of the Azores aims to measure the impact of its measures, particularly within the framework of EAE2030 and SOLENERGE.
