Potential for learning or transfer
This program supports the Canary Islands Government´s objective of promoting energy efficiency and the integration of the environmental perspective in all actions on energy consumption and production, in order to contribute to sustainable growth.
Potential projects eligible for the subsidies will have to achieve reduction of the CO2 emissions, by improvements of the energetic efficiency or use of renewable energies, through one or several lines of action of each sector. The execution of a global performance of energy services provision implies the adoption of actions in different areas, from the supply, the management thereof, the improvement works of the facilities, the maintenance of the installations or the implementation of new energy efficiency techniques that, in different combinations, will give different results. Policy for the promotion of energy efficiency in public buildings, exemplary actions in this area by public administrations and promotion of energy services companies
