Info pack – Setting up renewable valleys: a methodological handbook
The handbook developed by Crete Valley provides a comprehensive overview of the project’s engagement approach to establish one of the first Renewable Energy Valleys (REVs) on the Greek island of Crete. The info-pack details the various steps and methods used throughout this process, contextualised through the specific case of setting up a REV on an island.
