According to the Clean Energy for EU Islands platform, the participating territories are developing local energy plans that integrate renewable sources, digital tools, and smart systems to optimize energy use and storage. The approach adopted aims to make island energy systems more efficient and resilient, taking into account the geographic and demographic characteristics of small islands and the active role of local governments in the transition process.
