Short description of the overall project

The programme Support to Energy Efficiency and Sustainable Energy in Georgia consists of two development engagements with the overall objective of strengthening energy efficiency and sustainable energy in Georgia. This includes implementing energy reforms outlined in the EU Georgia Association Agreement. The first development engagement supports the development of Georgian legislation and regulation to enable electricity from renewable energy sources to feed into the national power grid, to develop energy efficiency building codes and labelling of energy efficiency levels on products as well as strengthening the capacity for monitoring and reporting on national energy consumption. The second engagement supports the demonstration of energy efficient building design in practice through energy renovation of public buildings and associated awareness raising campaigns and training of energy auditors.
