Energy agency interview series
“The most important barrier in adopting energy audits and energy efficiency measures is that the SME owners and/or managers cannot recognize or quantify the clear benefit, … not only financial but also environmental, [and the] improvement of their working environment and social responsibility.”
Dr Spyridon Economou President Centre for Renewable Energy Sources and Saving
The project has conducted interviews with agency leaders across Europe, gaining insights into the work being done to advance energy efficiency, in particular in the case of SMEs. In addition to Dr Economou of CRES, LEAP4SME has conducted interviews with AEA, ADENE, EST, EWA, KAPE, SIEA, EIHP and ENEA. Stay tuned for more updates from this interview series in the near future.
