The main goal of this event was to shape the work of Work Packages for the project INFIRE.
The partners started the work on Work Package (WP) 1 – Innovative green financing for resilient and carbon-neutral Euro-MED living areas. In WP1 the topics of climate adaptation and establishing carbon neutrality are addressed, and the main activities were discussed, along with methods and expected deliverables as well as the next steps of the WP works.
In WP2 – Integrating and improving policy instruments for sustainable and carbon-neutral residential zones, the key activities, objectives and next steps in the INFIRE project were reflected.
The partners also discussed the work on WP3 – Testing and demonstrating the viability of concrete climate adaption and carbon neutrality (CACN) solutions in Euro-MED living areas. Joint preparation, evaluation and monitoring of the pilot activities was carried out, and then each of the pilot activities was presented. Experts from the energy agency REAP presented the pilot activities for Bulgaria, which will be organized on the territory of Peshtera Municipality.
