Tbilisi is hosting the EU4Energy Energy Efficiency Training Week, which is organised by the International Energy Agency. The company “m² Real Estate” welcomed the participants and introduced them to the company’s energy efficiency projects.

Following the presentation, the participants visited the construction site of m²’s energy-efficient complex “m² at Kazbegi 2,” familiarising themselves with the techniques of using energy-efficient materials in the building process.

The training was attended by representatives of governmental and non-governmental organisations, as well as industry specialists.

The training week consists of the following five modules: 1) construction, 2) industry, 3) lighting, electric devices and equipment, 4) transport and 5) energy efficiency statistics. Participants had the opportunity of choosing the module which they regarded as the most appropriate and helpful for themselves.

The training week has been organised by the International Energy Agency, which heads the EU4Energy programme that was designed by the European Union for the benefit of the Eastern Partnership and Central Asian countries – Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine and Uzbekistan (target countries).
The programme aims to help the aforementioned 11 beneficiaries to gather data on saving energy, improve monitoring and capabilities, as well as help each country devise an energy policy tailored to its specific needs.
