Descrizione del progetto
Aiutare le PMI europee a sottoporsi ad audit energetici e attuare misure di efficienza energetica
Il progetto LEAP4SME, finanziato dall’UE, intende sostenere gli Stati membri e in particolare le loro piccole e medie imprese (PMI) nell’esecuzione di audit energetici e nell’attuazione di misure di risparmio energetico convenienti. Per raggiungere questi obiettivi, LEAP4SME condurrà una mappatura delle politiche e dei programmi attualmente esistenti per individuare i loro punti di forza e di debolezza. Il passaggio successivo consisterà nella definizione di una serie di proposte politiche e raccomandazioni all’attenzione degli Stati membri. Alla fine, le raccomandazioni saranno diffuse a livello europeo, nazionale e regionale.
Obiettivo
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.
