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.
The Second call for proposals closed last 28 January 2022 with 49 submitted applications that involved 54 European islands in 14 countries. The participating consortia are very varied, there is a good representation of public and private members and mixed, which will make the evaluation process very enriching. Some of the specific domains of action are: Hydrogen, electric boats, geothermal energy and constribution to the energy transition agenda of the islands.
NESOI team is proud to present a new round of project briefs from the first call for proposals!
Denmark, Estonia, Spain, Croatia, Greece, Italy and The Netherlands are the countries showcased in this group, where interesting projects related to energy transition are being developed.
BATEEIRO is a project in Illa de Arousa (Spain) that aims to decarbonise the fishing sector, which is the main economic activity of the island by fostering the electrification of the fishing boats.
