The Republic of Moldova is celebrating this years’ EU Sustainable Energy Week by offering virtual tours of the country with support from the EU-funded project ‘Covenant of Mayors East’.

During the EU Sustainable Energy Week (from 22 to 26 June) people will have the opportunity to travel online to several cities and villages in Moldova. The tours are guided by the cities’ mayors and deputy mayors, who share information about how their localities are changing and fulfilling the commitments under the EU initiative ‘Covenant of mayors for climate and energy’.

Meanwhile, the most interesting and innovative tours will receive an award by the Covenant of Mayors East team in Moldova. The jury will also take into consideration the public opinion. Some of the virtual tours include:

• A guided tour through the city of Ialoveni by Deputy Mayor Radu Chilaru. Find out more.
• A guided tour through the city of Straseni by Mayor Valentina Casian. Find out more.
• A guided tour in the city of Cimișlia by Mayor Sergiu Andronachi. Find out more.

This year, the EU Sustainable Energy Week (EUSEW) will run from 22 June until 26 June. The event will be held virtually and the overall topic will be Beyond the crisis: clean energy for green recovery and growth. The EUSEW is the biggest event dedicated to renewables and efficient energy use in Europe. It is organised by the European Commission and brings together public authorities, private companies, non-governmental organisations and consumers to promote initiatives for saving energy and moving towards renewables for clean, secure and efficient power.
