in order to be easily developed and updated. For example, in Andalusia the
results of territorial analysis will be included in the open access SSIAL (System
of shared information on andalusian landscape), and visual analysis (VSA, Visi-
bility System of Andalusia) will be integrated into the Environmental Information
Network of Andalusia (REDIAM). The process can be capitalised both at local
level, extending the pilot areas in the partners’ regions and countries, but also at
EU level, creating an integrated database able to monitor landscape changes re-
lated to RES development. The creation of a webGIS platform may also support
the exchange of best practices, starting from the Enerscapes project partners and
extending the participation to other territories in EU.
Secondly, capitalisation is related to governance and participation: the approach
of integrated planning is strictly dependent on a consistent network of local ac-
tors and stakeholders, together with decision-makers, in a multiscalar perspec-
tive. In pilot areas, the Enerscapes project highlights the need for inter-sector
relations, such as between entrepreneurs in the field of energy and farmers, or
between landscape experts and local decision-makers. At local level, this will
be capitalised in different ways, according to the local context. For example, the
Province of Vercelli and the University of Maribor cooperated with Piedmont
Region and Pomurje Region regarding landscape planning and the next phase
of Regional Development Programme, 2014-2020; the Municipality of Almyros
and the Region of Thessaly established contacts with the National Landscape
Committee, especially regarding the methodology for the Local Action Plan,
and its diffusion in other Greek contexts. In French pilot areas, several groups of
people were involved and the awareness regarding the possibility to take part in
energy and landscape planning will support other participative planning initia-
tives in the future.
At EU level, an improvement of local governance can be supported by the Ener-
