Content • Relevant European Policies and EE/RES in EU 2020 and Danube Strategy • Overview on European Funding programmes • Placing GovernEE on the Funding Map • Conclusion of possible projects and matching funding sources This project is implemented through the CENTRAL EUROPE Programme co-financed by the ERDF.

  3. Overview of Europe 2020 Strategy This project is implemented through the CENTRAL EUROPE Programme co-financed by the ERDF.

  4. EE / RES within Europe 2020 EU2020 Priority: Sustainable growth - promoting a more resource efficient, greener and more competitive economy” Flagship initiative"Resource efficient Europe„ advises MSs to use regulation, performance standards and market-based instruments (taxation, subsidies and procurement) to reduce the use of energy and resources and to utilize structural funds to invest in energy efficiency in public buildings and in more efficient recycling. Thematic Objectives will be the basis for priorities of all funding programme – the 2 (out of 11) relevant objectives : • Protecting the environment and promoting resource efficiency • Supporting the shift towards a low-carbon economy in all sectors This project is implemented through the CENTRAL EUROPE Programme co-financed by the ERDF.

  5. EE / RES within Danube Strategy • Relevance: 4 out of 5 GovernEE partners located in Danube Region • Danube Strategy is a macro-regional strategy: durable cooperation framework allowing policy makers to improve their cooperation and thus the effectiveness of EU, national and local policies • Relevant Thematic Priority (2) “Encourage more sustainable energy” • Relevant actions of the Action Plan include promotion of e.g.: • EE and use of RES in buildings and  heating systems - renovating district heating and combined heat & power facilities (Energy Performance of the Buildings & Renewable Energy Directive) • Cooperation between national authorities to increase the use of RES : research, exchange of experiences, dissemination of information Currently open project generation facility! DEADLINE: 10 September This project is implemented through the CENTRAL EUROPE Programme co-financed by the ERDF.

  6. Overview of Funding Programmes ERASMUS FOR ALL HORIZON 2020 Climate action, resource efficiency and raw materials Knowledge sector NATIONAL FUNDS NATIONAL OPs (ERDF, ESF) ETC PROGRAMMES CENTRAL Danube CBC IEE PROGRAMME EIB ELENA, JESSICA COSME Private sector Public sector LIFE+ PROGRAMME Research Innovation Knowledge exchange Investment Education, training and awareness This project is implemented through the CENTRAL EUROPE Programme co-financed by the ERDF.

  7. GovernEEonthefunding map This project is implemented through the CENTRAL EUROPE Programme co-financed by the ERDF.

  8. Conclusions on funding programmes 1/4 Relevance for the GovernEE partnership: all include the energy related topics relevant for GovernEE, provide good opportunities to carry on GovernEE results, building on experience of current cooperation Focus: regional policies, exchange of knowledge & best practices Actions funded: INTERREG 5 C and URBACT: Soft cooperation Regional and urban policies Transnational and CBC: more practice oriented programmes also provide scope for smaller scale investments. Beneficiaries: Public authorities key beneficiaries, partnership to be adapted to different geographical scope and type of organisations required by the programmes This project is implemented through the CENTRAL EUROPE Programme co-financed by the ERDF.

  11. Conclusions on funding programmes 2/4 Relevance for the GovernEE partnership: research projects can be linked to small scale demo / pilot projects implemented by local authorities Focus: research, demonstration of innovative technologies Actions funded: Research activities; Demonstrating, piloting developed technologies through small scale investments; Monitoring and Evaluation of the demonstrated technologies . Demonstration and pilot financed through LIFE+ and maybe IEE Beneficiaries: Partnership to be adapted to type of action: Knowledge organisation in case of research project, Public authorities in case of LIFE+ demonstration. Private sector participation encouraged. This project is implemented through the CENTRAL EUROPE Programme co-financed by the ERDF.
