On 27th June 2006, Lausanne and Evian hosted the 2006 European Energy Award (eea®) Symposium. The city of Neuchâtel received the eea® Gold label for the excellence and the continuity of its local energy policy.
Neuchâtel is the 11th European municipality to receive this European distinction (6 municipalities in Switzerland, 3 in Austria and 2 in Germany have already received it). The eea® label is awarded to local authorities who have achieved 50% of the objectives set by the eea® process; those achieving 75% are awarded the Gold label. This award has become a benchmark instrument for assessing and improving the performance of local energy policies in Europe. Its application in France is currently being tested with the support of the French Energy Management and Environment Agency (ADEME) in eight local authorities as part of the Franco-Swiss Interreg cross-border project “REVE Jura-Léman”.
