WP4: Capacity building and knowledge transfer for public bodies in MED cities and regions A 4.2: Capacity Building and knowledge transfer for public bodies

6th Steering Committee meeting Montenegro , 4.12.2014

2 Montenegro 4 December, 2014

Outcomes

22 Workshops for Local Action Groups (2 per region)

related to the pilot projects, based on the needs of the

participants with emphasis on creating capable local

partnerships

Materials adapted in national language for workshops and

future use in 8 topics: Biomass, Solar Energy, Stakeholders

involvement, Energy efficient buildings, Public lighting,

Legislation, Funding, Awareness


Target audience

Decision makers: representatives of public bodies

responsible for RES and energy efficiency and LAG members

Staff of the municip/ public organisations technical

departments: responsible to advice, develop,

implement,monitor a technical solution, employees

responsible for energy management


Impact of CBW

Enhance the local capacity with regard to the pilot

projects thematic areas

Provide members of public bodies knowledge in RES and

energy saving technologies; also understanding on

legislation, funding, communication and stakeholders

engagement

Transnational exchange of knowledge

Guidance on steps to be followed for efficient sustainable

energy projects

Sustainability of knowledge in local communities and

MED areas

Evaluation form

Signature list


Overall satisfaction of organisation and thematic areas

selected

The majority of participants declared that the workshop met

their expactation and they had some valuable input

More time for presentation, discussion and best practices

demanded in several workshops

Demand for more practical examples and presentation of

real case studies

Evaluation results


Plan well in advance for maximum number of participants

Provide sufficient time for both the theoretical and practical

part

Provide enough time for exchanges, discussion and

questions

Provide detailed information, training materials, hand outs

Invite and train participants with active role in pilot cases

Lessons learnt / Recommendations


Workshops with technical topics to be combined with non

technical topics (Awareness, Funding, Stakeholders

involvement, Legislation)

To efficiently implement a Sustainable Energy Action Plan or

project non-technical aspects are important

Policy/ decision makers should be aware of those issues

Lessons learnt / Recommendations
