ENGIE launches Enermap to support municipalies’ renewable energy potential
Local territories are at the heart of the energy transition. By leveraging their assets and land, they can produce local, sustainable energy, renovate public buildings, and adapt public spaces to climate challenges.
For local authorities, developing a renewable energy project (whether solar, wind, hydropower, biogas, batteries, or a heating or cooling network) is not straightforward. Elected officials, who are not energy specialists, do not always know where the potential lies.
Enermap was designed as a decision-support tool, providing clear, visual, and educational information to help them make informed choices—and explain those choices.
Enermap aggregates more than 25 public databases to provide a neutral, educational view of the development potential of different energy sources. Sources are systematically referenced.
Examples include: the Global Wind Atlas for wind energy; the Géorisques database for forests; “cartofriches” (industrial brownfield mapping) for solar power; Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) data for biogas; as well as data from IGN, Météo France, RTE, INRAE, and others.
