Participating Countries
The project is being implemented in the framework of the Interreg IPA CBC Programme “Greece – Albania 2014 – 2020”
Energy Saving
Within the SOLIS project, 2 pilot projects will be implemented regarding the installation of photovoltaics cells in the wastewater treatment plant of Louros, Preveza, and energy efficiency investments in the Municipality of Finiq, as well as an energy efficiency awareness platform for the general public.
Upon completion of these projects, through the website, the visitor will be able to watch in real time data related to energy savings from these projects.
The Framework Programme
Interreg IPA Cross-Border Cooperation Programme “Greece-Albania 2014-2020”
PROJECT HISTORY
The project addresses one of the major global challenges that humanity is facing, but most importantly takes on what is described as a THREAT for the Cross-Border area: the “Potential severe impacts of climate change on the natural and manmade environment”. The project aspires to showcase how a well-developed integrated energy intervention can achieve environmental targets, while at the same time boost economic growth and lead to a fair low-carbon economic development.
