Antwerp Circular South Journal 4: Well into the project, but far enough?

Antwerp Circular South Journal 4

UIA Expert Marcelline Bonneau reveals that “some specific aspects are becoming more prominent now: showing the added value to both residents and owners of buildings to take part in the PVs scheme and Renewable and Citizen Energy Community; realising the over optimism of the proposal; managing the political dependence of some actions. As such, Antwerp Circular South projects itself in the future and wishes to learn and share even more about what it has done and what it has struggled with.”
