Cross-border cooperation for energy efficiency using renewable energy sources

Programme 2021 - 2027 Interreg VI-A NEXT Hungary - Slovakia - Romania - Ukraine

Date of latest update: 2026-02-23

Description

Description (EN):

One of the main challenges in Romania, Ukraine and Hungary consists of high energy consumption in public buildings, and the use of electricity made from traditional sources which pollute. This consumption is very expensive but also open to fluctuations in price due to the fragile energy market in Europe, affecting the environment due to the large amounts of CO2 emissions. Having in mind the limited number of measures implemented to improve energy efficiency and use of renewable energy, the lack of knowledge among the public institutions employees on these topics, and lack of awareness of the young generation on the topics, the main objective of the project is to strengthen cooperation in the cross-border area in the field of energy efficiency and renewable energy through joint activities that enhance knowledge, raise awareness and contribute to an increased use of renewable energy. The project objective will be achieved through implementation of three groups of activities: implementation of renewable energy measures in the cross-border area; trainings for public institutions representatives/students on energy efficiency and renewable energy and public campaign on renewable energy for pupils; development of plans and strategies for the future. The targets group of the project are: public institutions; students; pupils; communities in the cross-border - general public; medical institutions in the cross-border area. The approach of the project is innovative as the project focuses on different target groups for which specific activities have been designed according to the needs and challenges identified, all with the aim to increase cross-border cooperation in the field of energy efficiency and renewable energy, a topic which is quite novel but very crucial for the European Union. Two of the most important results of the cross-border cooperation resides in the installation of 5 photovoltaic systems and elaboration of a cross-border strategy on renewable energy.

Expected Achievements (EN):
