In 2012, CASCADE organised six peer review visits, two for each thematic area:
- Energy in urban transport: hosted by Nantes & Sunderland
- Energy efficient buildings and districts: hosted by Birmingham & Tampere
- Renewable energy sources and distributed energy generation: hosted by Amsterdam & Genoa
CASCADE cities involved city experts and decision makers, as well as local stakeholders in intensive peer review visits. During these visits, the visitors assessed specific energy projects currently being implemented and provided the hosts with recommendations on possible areas of improvement.
