"Typology of cities - PLEEC Deliverable 2.2";
2014; 20 S.

City profiles will reveal the specific opportunities and threats that will confront cities on their innovation journey towards an energy-efficient development. Deliverable 2.2 analyses city performance on certain key aspects in a European perspective and in comparison. This typology allows for benchmarking and an easy identification of comparable cities in order to look for best practices and to gain some input for WP3-5 of the PLEEC project.

Main findings/conclusions
. The typology of European cities shows up with three big clusters (comprising 16-25 cities) arranged along three axes across Europe:
o a first axis runs down from Scandinavia in the North to the South of France
o a second one forms a north-east curve leading to the south-west of Europe
o a third axis running from the West to the East of Europe
. The other three clusters of the typology are smaller ones (consisting of 3-7 cities) and are situated in the heart of Europe as well as in the outermost East
. Stoke-on-Trent as well as Santiago de Compostela go in the same cluster (no. 5); Turku, Jyväskylä and Eskilstuna perform similar (cluster 6); Tartu is situated in another cluster (no. 3)
. To conduct a specific energy efficiency cluster analysis, a common data base of sufficient indicators is (still) needed in Europe
