EcoSMEnergy
Enhancing energy efficiency and sustainability of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) operating in NACE code sectors C20 to C22 and C25 to C29
Project
The EcoSMEnergy project aims to offer a holistic solution to address energy challenges of SMEs in NACE code sectors C20 to C22 and C25 to C29, with tangible impacts on energy efficiency and sustainability, while aligning with EU directives focused on energy efficiency and promoting clean energy transitions.
Its primary objective is to enhance energy efficiency and sustainability of SMEs in the targeted sectors by means of a broad range of activities that deal with challenges related to energy efficiency, lack of awareness, motivation, or access to financial solutions.
Activities
Scoping studies
Energy Audits
Capacitiy Building
Business Support Organisations, energy auditors and SMEs are trained with the objective of increasing the adoption of energy efficiency measures among SMEs. Different tools and methods are used, ranging from energy audits over dedicated workshops to digital tools and platforms (e.g. the Impawatt platform and the Energy Efficiency Hub for SMEs).
Access to Finance
The project seeks to facilitate access to finance for SMEs in the targeted sectors by providing guidance and support for securing funding for energy efficiency measures. Round tables are organised involving SMEs, credit institutions, and public administration. A catalogue with funding opportunities in the participating countries is put at SMEs’ disposal via the Impawatt platform.
