Tuesday, 23 May 2023
On 22 May, a final conference was held in the Round Hall of Ruse Municipality to report on the results achieved under the project "Ruse - Low Carbon City" implemented by the local administration. It is funded by the European City Facility - EUCF and the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.
Financial support is provided to cities in the European Union to develop investment concepts needed to accelerate the implementation of energy and climate action plans.
The project aims to increase the introduction of low carbon vehicles in the public transport system, increase investment in improved home efficiency, and improve the energy performance of public buildings.
The activities carried out under the project include the preparation of a technical analysis and design of a 2 MW solar park and the selection of a suitable plot for its construction. An update of the technical and financial aspects of the hydrogen transport project analysis has been carried out, its business plans have been prepared and criteria for a public procurement related to its implementation have been prepared.
The condition of 15 public buildings was analysed and the investment projects for their renovation through the introduction of energy efficiency measures were updated.
Over 40 meetings have been held with condominium owners to provide support by informing and introducing them to the opportunities provided by the National Recovery and Sustainability Plan for Multifamily Residential Buildings. As a result of this information campaign, Ruse Municipality has registered 34 applications for the measure "Support for sustainable energy renovation of residential building stock - Stage I".
On the basis of all the activities carried out, an investment concept has been prepared, bringing together the results of the above-mentioned highlights of the Project, and Ruse Municipality has attracted an external team of experts to cooperate in the preparation of the overall investment concept.
