Access to Finance

One of the critical barriers SMEs face in advancing energy efficiency is their access to financial resources. The project directly addresses this through structured efforts to connect businesses with financial institutions and funding opportunities. The project organizes round-tables and stakeholder dialogues designed to bring SMEs and financial actors together, fostering trust and collaboration.

These engagements aim to improve awareness of available financing mechanisms and build confidence in the economic viability of energy efficiency investments.

Moreover, access to finance information from the participating countries is published on the Impawatt platform and becomes freely available to any interested SME inside and outside of the project.
