The selection of BPs aims at learning from others' experience of demonstrated success. BP catalogue is part of the broader process of benchmarking: comparison method designed to identify, understand and adapt particularly significant practices (recognized as a best practice or practice with a high performance) implemented by others, in order to improve each pilot area’s performance or business. The project TERRE allows the creation of a BP catalogue, which is a collection of BPs selected by each Partners (PP). This catalogue is regarded as an essential part of the Decision Support System (DSS), and with the whole DSS, it contributes to “underline potentialities and opportunities, as well as critical issues, conflicts, bottlenecks, risks and threats, which might arise from the implementation of local development strategies based on RES”, as specified in the TERRE Application Form [pp. 61]. Having a BP catalogue means to evaluate and share experiences with those who have faced, worked on and solved similar problems in the past. The assumption of this research process is the widespread collection and the continuous exchange of information, between partners, on the knowledge of: “what others did”, the method they used, the difficulties encountered and solutions enabled. By studying and comparing different realities that have characteristics of excellence, the University IUAV of Venice intends to acquire and capitalize suggestions and examples to be transferred to TERRE partners and their main stakeholders. Considering the different contexts in which the PP are, and the limits imposed by the different language used by PP, IUAV has proposed a concise but inclusive BP format. It was developed in order to clarify key issues and main lessons learnt, and also to simplify the BPs’ reading and understanding. The format has been based on several questions and to underline the key elements of each BP’s success. It considers the ingredients and main aspects developed, as well as conflicts or barriers encountered. Specifically, it focuses on several aspects as: governance and government; relevance in local development aspects, integration and synergies of different environmental-social-economic aspects; effective participation process and synergies with economic actors, or stakeholders. 5 2 Analysis of BP TERRE Partners have selected 25 BPs (see tab. 2.1). Partner Number of BP Province of Rimini 2 Province of Rovigo 2 IUAV 2 LG Ujszilvas 3 SZMJVO 2 TOB 2 EEE 2 ODSEC 2 CTRP Kranj 1 Dimotrovgrad 2 IRENA 3 LIR 2 Tab. 2. 1 BPs per Partner The BPs do not have all the same target/scale. The collected BPs have been divided into two main groups. The first group, called “BP plans/strategies” (par. 3), is more complete, it presents and analyses plans, strategies and a set of correlated actions and aspects connected to sustainable development of strategies of territorial development related to RES. A lot of synergies between different aspects can be found in the BPs of this group. The second groups, called “BP projects/plants” (par. 4), is more focused on single projects/plans. In this group the strategies and synergies between different aspects are less evident. The integration of the two groups of BPs can lead to the elaboration of plans/strategies (group 1, par 3) combining projects/plants considered in group 2 (par. 4.). Moreover, in order to make the consultation of this “BP catalogue” easy and results-oriented, the two groups of BPs have been organized using topics and keywords. In tab. 2.2 and 2.3 the topics and the keywords used to categorize BPs’ plans/strategies are spotlight. In tab. 2.4 and 2.5 are spotlight the topics and the keywords used to categorize BPs’ projects/plants. 6 Governance Local Energy Environmental Economic Social Integrations/ Conflicts/ Best Practice PP /government development issues aspects aspects aspects synergies vulnerability 3.1 Biomax Provinceof X X X X X Biogas plant Rimini 3.2 Photovoltaic Province of X X X X X X System Rovigo 3.3 One hectare X X X X X X X IUAV of sky 3.4 Prato allo X X X X X X X IUAV Stelvio 3.5 Solar Park X X X X X LG Ujszilvás 3.6 Gussin X X X X X X X EEE Model 3.7 EcoEnergy X X X X X X EEE Strem 3.8 Wind energy X X X X X X X TOB Burgenland 3.9 Sustainable Energy self X X X X X X X X CTRP Kranj sufficiency 3.10 Energy X X X Dimitrovgrad efficiency 3.11 Stadtwerke Schwäbisch X X X X X X X X IRENA Hall GmbH Tab. 2. 2 BP – plans/strategies – topics 7 Best practice iciency EnergySupply EnergySaving Energy Eff EnergyPotential Sustainability Territorial Development Environmental Benefit Biodiversity Conservation/ Management Environmental Policy/ legislation Landscape protection/ management Investment Plans Jobcreations Governance Decision SupportSystem Participation Capacity building Raising awareness Knowledge transfer Natural resource management Integrated tourism heritage Natural Renewal Energy Sources Fossil Energy RenevalEnergy Demand 3.1 Biomax X X X X X X Biogas plant 3.2 Photov.
