Societal Growth in Renewable Energy and Storage Innovation

What we do

Countries across the NPA share climate change challenges and the need for citizens to understand and contribute to energy efficient practices while being situated in sparsely populated areas with high energy needs, cold climates, defective housing insulation, fossil fuel dependency and energy insecurity exasperated by the war, causing distress to citizens reliant on oil or gas. This preparatory project aims to identify countries, regions and key decision-makers for cooperation, to jointly develop an NPA project with the objective to identify, develop and deploy solutions supporting the adoption of renewable energy systems and sustainable energy use. The project will conclude with the main project application.
