Description
The aim of the project is to increase the capacity of four Bulgarian municipalities- Smolyan, Asenovgrad, Svilengrad and Krushari to plan, monitor, evaluate and implement their strategic programmes for climate change measures and subsequently to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to adapt to the anticipated adverse consequences from climate change. Project activities include tailor-made training programs, highlighting good practices from donor partner, implementation of measures set out in the plans for sustainable energy development and climate, introduction of an intelligent energy monitoring system and others.
The project also focuses on the needs of municipalities for training and capacity building of employees and implementation of measures for production of electricity and heat from renewable sources and conducting energy efficiency surveys set out in the EE programs of the partner municipalities.
At the same time there will be activities for introduction of pilot intelligent energy monitoring system of energy consumption and production in buildings and monitoring of the potential of solar and wind energy, as the acquired knowledge and results will be implemented in new or updated existing programs to promote the use of renewable energy sources (RES) of the partner municipalities.
The project is in line with the EU 2030 targets for reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and contributes to the EU ambition for a climate-neutral economy by 2050.
