Projects

ISLET PROJECT aims at supporting the collaboration between public authorities, private investors, and citizens in order to develop renewable energy communities developing an integrated approach to facilitate the emergence and growth of renewable community energy projects on Mediterranean small islands. The strengthening of the technical structures of the Local Authorities, to achieve the objectives set up, must be the keystone. A further step is provided by the dialogue, cohesion and collaboration between local authorities and nationals, and the involvement of citizens in decisions.

The EMPOWER concept aims to encourage and enable the active participation of citizens that consume and produce energy in the electrical system. It is based on the insight that a significant reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and an increase of energy efficiency require radical changes in the way we produce and consume energy.

STEPPING project intends to increase the adoption of energy performance contracting (EPC) investment schemes in the elaboration of Energy Efficiency plans for public building in the MED area, raising the knowledge of MED institutions in designing, implementation and managing of energy efficiency (EE) plans for public buildings.

PEGASUS project focuses on experimenting a simulation of functioning micro-grids in 7 pilot areas jointly by collecting real data in relation to energy consumption and generation.
The project aims to give evidence of the feasibility of micro-grids acting by overcoming technical or administrative hurdles, which are hindering the implementation of micro-grid system across the Mediterranean area, in order to help small communities become energy independent.

LOCAL4GREEN project aims to support policymakers to define and implement innovative local fiscal policies, intended to promote renewable energy sources (RES) both in the public and in the private sector and households, mainly in the framework of the Sustainable Energy Action Plans adopted by signatory Local Authorities of the Covenant of Mayors.

Green Infrastructures for increasing biodiversity in Agro Pontino and Maltese rural areas.
LIFE GREENCHANGE intends to contribute to halting the loss of biodiversity and to enhance the ecological value of the agricultural systems of the Agro Pontino and of the northern region of Malta.

New Finance project is designed to improve the lives of people by driving leadership in energy innovation. The project will take a step towards making energy efficiency investment easier by increasing the confidence of key decision makers from public and finance sector to find and apply working strategies for mobilisation of private funding and better use of ESI funds.

Enerselves (Interreg Europe) The project was approved under the “low-carbon economy” topic of the Interreg Europe programme. It aims to promote and support the integration of renewable energy sources (RES) in public buildings.

The project intends to lay the basis for a Marine Energy Development Strategy in the Mediterranean. The main output will consist in the creation in each participating region of informal networks called Blue Energy Labs (BEL). BELs will involve local enterprises, public authorities, knowledge institutions and citizens.
