During the last stage of the project the aim was to expand the ISABEL concept and approaches to other regions of Europe. This document presents the design for the setting up and uptake of ISABEL concepts and approaches in three additional regions of Europe. The aim has been to provide support and co-design, together with the stakeholders of the selected cases, a plan of action towards the establishment of sustainable “Biogas SI Platforms” and “Community biogas interventions” in these regions. We have looked to help selected stakeholders that share similar interests and concerns to replicate the concept, approach and tools developed under ISABEL to their regions and to guide them in taking the first steps in setting up their SI platforms. Designing an initial action plan of potential interventions and discussing with their local communities has achieved this objective. The results of this support and co-design exercise have offered valuable information on the replication potential of the ISABEL concept, approach and tools and helped partners fine-tune the project replication guide.
Based on experience and knowledge gained the three partner countries involved in ISABEL identified potential areas not in their regions to collaborate in order to inform and enlighten and exchange ideas via the International Workshops. Two partners, Germany and Greece, chose areas nearby in parallel countries with some geographical or cultural conditions that had different past historical conditions. In the case of the UK team they chose to collaborate with Northern Spain in an area where there was a demonstration project showing different forms of renewable energy that could be applied at a range of scales. Partially to share experiences linked to the local projects and partially to develop collaborative links for projects in other countries, potentially thinking ahead to collaboration in Africa. Additionally, through shared experience, to enlighten some of those involved in UK community projects about some of the concepts and potential technology used in Northern Spain.
