The European Islands Facility – NESOI, open to a community of 2400 inhabited EU islands, aims to fund 60 successful energy transition projects, mobilizing more than €100m of investment and reducing significantly CO2 and GHG emissions by 2023.
CABILDO DE GRAN CANARIA presented the preliminary studies for the creation of an energy community project in Arinaga
Andrea Martinez, our project coordinator and partner from Sinloc, moderated the Roundtable dedicated to "Environmental Dimension: Energy Transition and Climate Change" at the Island Commission of the Conference of Peripheral Maritime Regions of Europe. This organisation covers 19 island authorities in the Mediterranean and Baltic seas and Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans, which means an estimated population of 15 million inhabitants.
Last 6-7 April 2022, our colleagues from R2M Solution attended the "Low-Carbon Solution Fair" in Paris (France). This Fair, framed in the context of BIM World, gathered actors from the sustainable construction value chain and served as a networking spot for organisations interested in ecological transition.
On March 18, our colleagues from the Centre for Research & Technology Hellas (CERTH) participated in the Energy Academy Greece Edition (17-18 March 2022) organised by the Clean Energy for EU islands Secretariat. The event took place in the Greek island of Crete and in Greek language, since it was presented in the form of a workshop.
The Covenant of Mayors is a European initiative that was launched in 2008 by the European Commission with the aim of gathering local governments to implement actions that lead to the achievement of the EU climate and energy targets. At the present, this initiative brings together more than 9000 local and regional governements accross 57 countries, which allows a multi-level model of cooperation.
