Descripción del proyecto
Ayudar a las pymes europeas a afrontar auditorías energéticas y aplicar medidas de eficiencia energética
El proyecto LEAP4SME, financiado con fondos europeos, tiene por objeto ayudar a los Estados miembros y, en particular, a sus pequeñas y medianas empresas (pymes), a llevar a cabo auditorías energéticas y aplicar medidas de ahorro energético rentables. Para alcanzar tales objetivos, en LEAP4SME se mapearán las políticas y los programas que existen actualmente para identificar sus puntos fuertes y débiles. Seguidamente, se definirán un conjunto de recomendaciones y propuestas de políticas dirigidas a la atención de los Estados miembros. Por último, las recomendaciones se darán a conocer a nivel europeo, nacional y regional.
Objetivo
The proposed project intends to support Member States in establishing or improving national and local schemes for SMEs to undergo energy audits and implement cost-effective recommended energy-saving measures.
An initial work of policies and programmes mapping will be followed by an in-depth understanding of their strengths and weaknesses, with the aim of overcoming the current criticalities and bottlenecks. At the same time a work of characterisation of SMEs in terms of energy consumption, size and sector will be carried out to understand effective ways to properly address existing and innovative energy audit policies.
Provided a continuous interaction (by means of workshops, questionnaires, meetings) with policy makers as well as SMEs and ESCOs/Energy Auditors associations, a set of policy proposals and recommendations will be then developed and diffused.
The priorities guiding the policy and recommendation development will be:
- Effectiveness and orientation to real market needs;
- Integration with other points of the EED, particularly article 7 Energy Efficiency Obligation Schemes and alternative measures;
- Replicability, at least for SMEs sector/size/region;
A fundamental part of the project, with a relevant participation requested to each partner, will be a continuous action of capacity building and dissemination addressed to policy makers and relevant stakeholders at European, National and Regional level.
In order to concentrate the efforts on new challenges and to valorise previous efforts, the Consortium is committed to take as much advantage as possible of results obtained in previous pertinent EU funded projects (such as ENSPOL, ODYSSEE-MURE, EPATEE) and relevant initiatives such as EEFIG and its related Sustainable Energy Investment Forums.
On request of the European Institutions, the Consortium would also be very glad to contribute, through findings and results of the project, to the current debate on the SME definition.
