INTERREG IPA II CROSS-BORDER COOPERATION PROGRAMME GREECE -ALBANIA 2014-2020

Project: Leading the way to improve energy efficiency in public schools and propagate the use of renewable energy sources “LED”

In framework of the INTERREG IPA II Cross-Border Cooperation Programme Greece -Albania 2014-2020 with reference number “A2-1.3–1” will develop the project: Leading the way to improve energy efficiency in public schools and propagate the use of renewable energy sources “LED” focus on the fields of energy efficiency of public buildings and the use of RES, in line with the relevant EU policies and national legislation.

The project’s main objective of LED project will have the following results: -increased public awareness level on energy saving, the importance of energy efficiency & the use of RES: – improved energy behavior of local population -reduced energy consumption in public buildings -exchange of knowledge & transfer of know-how & experiences in the CB region with regard to increased energy efficiency of public buildings (school buildings, but the model could be expanded) & social awareness -improved quality of the environment through energy efficiency & clean renewable energy -capacity building in the CB area to energy saving practices & to raising social awareness teachers & the general public on energy saving issues & opportunities for saving energy in buildings (RES, smart ICT tools, habits etc). The energy efficiency awareness of students will increase through special instruments such as the establishment of the Experiential Laboratories & the social awareness & information Campaign, utilizing educational material thoroughly designed for this purpose. On the other hand, the energy efficiency awareness of the local population & the national, regional & local authorities of the CB area will increase through the operation of the Centers, workshops & seminars, the LED Network’s activities, as well as through another awareness Campaign designed for adults.

The innovation of these results lies on the core of the Project, since students will be the carriers of the importance of energy efficiency & the use of RES to the future generation of CB citizens, whereas this would be achieved through all Project actions but predominantly by the Experiential Laboratories.

Specific targets of external expertize for the preparation of “Project Management & Coordination” (WP1) “, “LED Centers” (WP5) and “Networking and Sustainability” (WP6) of the LED project are as follows:

WP 1 Project Management & Coordination

Deliverable 1.1.2 Project Management Strategy
