Coaches for Energy and Climate Coacher för energi och klimat

The project Coaches for Energy and Climate was funded by the Swedish Energy Agency and the European Regional Development Fund through the National Regional Fund Programme. Through the programme, the Swedish Energy Agency provided funding and capacity building for municipal Energy and Climate Advisors to specifically target small and medium-sized enterprises (energy use <300MWh/year) and support their efforts to improve their energy efficiency and contribute to the transition to a low-carbon economy. The programme, which was free of charge for participating companies, combined individual coaching with group lectures, training and energy walks. Networking and exchanging experiences between companies was also an important part of the project. By participating, companies were helped to reduce energy costs, improve profitability and reduce their carbon footprint.
