EU SUSTAINABLE ENERGY AWARD FOR THE EASTERN PARTNERSHIP
The second EU Sustainable Energy Award for the Eastern Partnership was announced this year as part of the EU Sustainable Energy Week. The winners were selected among six finalists in the EaP region by public vote. Cogratulations to the project “Green Light Moldova – Modernisation and Saving Energy in Street Lighting”!
The winning project from Moldova was launched under the EU-supported Covenant of Mayors Demonstration Projects. The two cities of Ocniţa and Cantemir installed modern, energy efficient street lighting to reduce CO2 emissions by 20% by 2020.
The second place went to the “EU4Civil Society Energy Efficiency in Armenian Communities” project, and the third place was awarded to the “Biomass Energy and Energy Efficient Technologies in Georgia” project. All projects competing in the award were EU-funded initiatives. The EU4Energy Communications project has released three videos about the first, second and third place winners.

The EU Sustainable Energy Award for the Eastern Partnership was launched in 2019 and showcases inspiring examples of innovative, local energy efficiency and renewable energy solutions from across the region that benefit both citizens and business alike.
