Strengthening Support for Renewable Energy on the Regional Level
Objectives:
- To strengthen capacities of regional administrations and stakeholders to implement renewable energy source projects
- To develop training modules for renewable energy source
- To train regional administrations and stakeholders in selected pilot regions
- To provide external expertise and experiences from partner regions
- To establish partnerships and exchange of experiences between regions and communes in the partner countries and the enercites network
Outcomes:
- Training material/modules for regional administrations and stakeholders are developed by the project partners.
- 6 training seminars carried out on regional level involving regional administrative officials and other stakeholders.
- Partnerships between pilot regions and projects in the EU-10 partner countries and EU-15 regions and communes will be initiated.
Activities:
Regional decision makers and stakeholders are not always aware of potentials and benefits of renewable energy sources. SUPPORT_ERS integrates regions with high potential for the use of renewable energy sources in the project activities and develops a modular regional training programme. In six new member states and one candidate country SUPPORT ERS carries out pilot seminars based on the elaborated training modules. SUPPORT_ERS also supports the initiation of direct exchange with regions and municipalities from EU member states with lonstanding experiences in developing renewable energy sources on regional and local level.
Regional Training Seminars on RES:
Regional training seminars will be run in SUPPORT_ERS Pilolt Regions from June through October
