LEAP4SME aims to support Member States in establishing or improving effective policies for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to undergo energy audits and implement cost-effective, recommended energy-saving measures through identifying the barriers for unlocking energy efficiency measures, mobilising private stakeholders, and proposing effective solutions to realise both energy and non-energy benefits.

The objective of the MICAT project is the development of a comprehensive approach to estimate Multiple Impacts of Energy Efficiency. MICAT will enable analyses at three different governance levels (local, national and EU) to address a broad target group and interested actors.

The COMBI project aimed at quantifying the multiple non-energy benefits of energy efficiency. It gathered existing approaches and evidence from the EU area, developed modelling approaches and came up with consolidated data on different benefits such as emissions (effects on health, ecosystems, crops, built environment), resources (biotic/abiotic, metals and non-metals), social welfare (disposable income, comfort, health), macroeconomy (labor market, public finance, GDP), and the energy system (grid, supply-side, energy security)

The Horizon2020 funded project QualDeEPC aims to enhance (1) the quality and cross-EU convergence of Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) schemes, and (2) the link between EPCs and deep renovation.

streamSAVE aims to assist Member States in their efforts to deliver rapidly scalable savings and increase their chances of succesfully meeting energy efficiency targets under Article 3 and 7 of the Energy Efficiency Directive (EED). A series of activities, divided into three categories, will be carried out with the intent of improving the energy saving methodologies capacities and skills of stakeholders across Europe.

The EU-funded DEESME project will develop a new approach to enable SMEs to manage their energy transition in line with EU policies. It will provide national authorities with guideline proposals and recommendations on how to strengthen the national schemes. To assist SMEs to develop and test the technical DEESME solutions, the project will organise information and training events. It will conduct energy audits and implement energy management systems.
