The project is funded by the Kosovo Foundation for Open Society (KFOS) and supports a just energy transition at the municipal level in Kosovo by promoting energy democratization and a bottom-up approach.
Specific Objective(s):
- SO1: advocating for reducing barriers to RES, EE investments and prosumerism.
- SO2: encouraging inclusive participation of youth in the green economy through knowledge transfer.
- SO3: encourage green investments at the municipal level in RES and EE
The project includes baseline research on barriers to renewable energy investments, followed by publishing a research study and signing MoUs with the municipality and a university for NGO-government-academia collaboration. Peer-to-peer learning will be facilitated, focusing on solar panel installation, and green investments will be encouraged. An inauguration ceremony will present the study findings and discuss solar energy challenges and opportunities.
