Descrizione del progetto
Miglioramento dei finanziamenti per la transizione all’energia sostenibile in Bulgaria
Il successo della transizione della Bulgaria all’energia pulita attualmente dipende troppo dalle sovvenzioni. Ad esempio, il settore della ristrutturazione delle case del paese dipende al 100 % dalle sovvenzioni. Occorre sviluppare uno schema di finanziamento sostenibile per raggiungere obiettivi energetici ambiziosi e affrontare i crescenti tassi di povertà energetica. Il progetto BeSMART, finanziato dall’UE, creerà un forum di discussione e nove tavole rotonde che coinvolgeranno autorità pubbliche, esperti di efficienza energetica, il settore finanziario e delle costruzioni, società di servizi energetici, PMI e proprietari di case per sostenere nuovi modelli di business e finanziamenti intelligenti. Il progetto sosterrà anche lo sviluppo di strategie nazionali e locali, elaborerà quadri istituzionali e legali e aprirà la strada a una maggiore fiducia tra gli investitori.
Obiettivo
Bulgaria is facing a serious challenge to radically transform its extremely grant-dependent energy efficiency support schemes, while at the same time preserving the speed and scope of the clean energy transition. This is especially valid for the residential sector, where the existing 100% grant mechanism for building renovation has to be quickly reformed into a sustainable financing scheme, at the same time targeting more ambitious energy targets and taking into account the overspread energy poverty. Similar situation is evidenced in the industry, where investments are usually prompted by operational programmes offering up to 80% grants. Considering the principles of functioning of the EU Green Deal and the possibilities under the Recovery Package, innovative financial instruments have to be quickly designed and adopted in a transparent and inclusive way, significantly improving the leveraging effect of public resources, while at the same taking into account the limited investment capacities and purchasing power of the consumers. To address these policy and market gaps, BeSmart aims to support smart financing implementation by setting up a permanent discussion forum, gathering central and local authorities, energy efficiency experts, the financial sector, ESCOs, homeowners, industry, construction and SME sector representatives. The discussion forum and the 9 roundtables planned under the project are specifically designed to support new business models and utilize investment opportunities derived from the increased financing for energy efficiency and renewable energy at EU level. They will gather and upscale existing best practices, support the development of national and local-level strategies, propose improvements in the national policy framework and implementation programmes, develop the institutional and legal framework, and increase the transparency in the policy-making process, leading to increased trust of the investors and better functioning of the market.
