The EUCF Project is an initiative that gives municipalities and local authorities the opportunity to gain access to financial support of up to €60,000 to conduct studies for the design and maturation of projects. These studies will result in the development of new sustainable investment plans, which need to focus on smart energy management, energy upgrades and carbon footprint reduction.
The 4th Call for applications will be open until 30 September 2022 (18:00 EEST, Greece local time). The 3rd National Webinar on the 3rd Call for Applications by the EUCF Initiative, hosted by SUSTAINABLE CITY Network, was a great success. As the National Network of the EUCF for Greece, SUSTAINABLE CITY invited representatives of the Municipalities to attend the webinar, in order to inform them about the funding opportunities arising from this project and the funding application process.
The Network’s General Manager, Mr. Ioannis Georgizas, greeted the participants, while briefly mentioning the purpose of SUSTAINABLE CITY Network establishment and its contribution to the project. Consequently, the Country Expert, Dr. Panagiotis Michail, elaborated on the usefulness of the initiative, as well as on the results of the two previous Calls for Applications. Municipalities have an excellent opportunity to gain access to financial support of up to 60,000 € and to provision of technical assistance for the design and maturation of projects that will create the sustainable cities of the future. These projects should be related to smart energy management, energy upgrades and carbon footprint reduction.
The funds will be provided by the European Initiative called “European City Facility – EUCF”; the 3rd Call for applications will be open until 17 December 2021 (18:00 EEST, Greece local time).

We are pleased to announce the participation of the Municipalities of Aigialia, Thebes, Kalamata, Messini and Halki in the implementation of the project "Energy Monitoring and Calculation of the Carbon Footprint of Municipal Buildings and Facilities" which is funded by the national programme “Natural Environment & Innovative Environmental Actions 2019”. This project is part of the GREEN FUND's Financial Scheme “Innovative actions with citizens".
The Municipalities selected by SUSTAINABLE CITY will install a digital GIS (Geographic Information System) platform, which will be used to record the energy consumption of municipal buildings and their facilities, while calculating their carbon footprint, in order to provide an innovative tool for monitoring the infrastructure of Local Authorities. |
