Partners from the UK, Germany, Belgium and Norway are working together to deliver a common approach towards carbon reduction and energy efficiency within the North Sea Region.
The Low Carbon Regions in the North Sea (LOWCAP) cluster project reviews and exchanges knowledge and experiences from four carbon reduction and energy efficiency projects (Build with Care, Care North, North Sea Sustainable Energy Planning and Carbon Capture & Storage) in the North Sea Region.
The European Union's (EU) 2020 targets for carbon reduction and energy efficiency require innovative and practical initiatives to deliver change. LOWCAP will produce and disseminate policy advice to help meet these targets within the North Sea Region as a key output of the project.
The project's objective to create a North Sea Region Programme perspective on Carbon Reductions & Energy Efficiency by:
Focusing on low carbon design and planning

Working on transport infrastructure and modal shift
