 SURE Sustainable urban energy in the ENPI region – towards the Covenant of Mayors
Location of Activities: Belarus, Morocco,
Sector: Energy Efficiency
Lead Partner:
City of Friedrichshafen (Germany);
Contact: Klaus KLOTH - email: k.kloth@friedrichshafen.de
EU Climate Action calls for a 20% reduction in CO2 emissions over 1990 levels, as well as a 20% increase in energy efficiency and 20% increase in energy from renewable energy sources (20-20-20). EU city municipalities actively participate in this process by joining the Covenant of mayors, a voluntary agreement signed by cities that are willing to contribute to this plan by means of sustainable energy planning. |
 IEECS - Energy Efficient Municipalities: Increasing Energy Efficiency of Chisinau and Sevastopol municipalities based on existing positive experience
Location of Activities: Moldova, Ukraine,
Theme: Environmental Sustainability
Sector: Energy Efficiency
Lead Partner:
Chisinau City Hall (Moldova);
Contact: Daniela FRANTUJAN - email: daniela.frantujan@pmc.md
Due to cheap and secure supplies, traditionally there has been little focus on energy efficiency in the former Soviet countries. Even since gaining independence there has been little movement to develop energy efficiency strategies, supported by appropriate policies. |
 SPIN-Energy efficiency & urban development planning
Location of Activities: Russian Federation, Ukraine,
Sector: Energy Efficiency
Lead Partner:
Municipality of Savski Venac (Serbia);
Contact: Nemanja PETROVIC - email: petrovicn@savskivenac.rs;
Buildings account for 40% of the energy demand in the EU, and even more in the ENPI countries. Improving energy use in the building sector is therefore essential to reducing energy consumption and CO2 emissions. Historical buildings, of which there are many in Ukraine and the Russian Federation, pose a particular challenge given constraints that apply when undertaking renovation work that make it difficult to increase their energy performance. |
 MODEL: Management Of Domains related to Energy in Local authorities

In 2008 the EU adopted its Climate and Energy Package (CEP). CEP calls for cutting CO2 emissions, and increasing energy efficiency and use of energy from renewable sources, all by 20% over 1990 levels (20-20-20). In order to achieve these goals on a larger level, it is important that ENPI countries and local authorities (LAs) commit and contribute to common values and principles. In the ENPI Eastern countries, artificially low energy prices have resulted in a poor culture of energy efficiency. |
