The presentation was followed by questions and discussion with the audience about the possibilities of implementing the RLL tool in spatial planning, the energy-related parameters that need to be considered in the spatial planning processes in Greece and the ways though which integrated sustainable energy planning can be incorporated into spatial planning and development programming.

Some of the conclusions that emerged from the discussion were:

• The need to institutionally safeguard the spatial nature of ad hoc energy projects
• The establishment of a mechanism capable of coordinating and monitoring energy efficiency policies at different levels.
• The establishment of relations and links between spatial planning and energy planning in the country.
