Image showing EnerCmed project in action, illustrating the transformation of Mediterranean communities into energy-positive and climate-resilient environments

The EnerCmed Knowledge Helpdesk Platform (KHP) is the central knowledge and support hub of the EnerCmed project. It brings together a transnational network of experts to assist pilot cities and stakeholders in designing and implementing Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) and Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) in port-hinterland neighbourhoods.

Through a combination of shared methodologies, technical guidance, co-design tools, and peer learning, the KHP provides tailored support for overcoming local challenges, fostering innovation, and ensuring successful replication across the Mediterranean region.

It serves as a collaborative engine to empower cities with the tools, knowledge, and partnerships needed for a just and inclusive energy transition.
