ProLIGHTmed Project “Progressive solutions in greener optimization of public lighting in EUROMED area”

City of Kaštela is Partner in the ProLIGHTmed project, entitled “Progressive solutions in greener optimization of public lighting in EURO-MED area”.

 

The project, funded by the Interreg Euro-MED Programme 2021-2027, under the “Greener MED” programme priority, is dedicated to advancing the adaptation to climate change by optimizing and facilitating energy efficiency solutions for public lighting in the EURO-MED area, in order to foster greener living spaces.

 

ProLIGHTmed is led by the Municipality of Tuzi (Montenegro) and involves 7 partners from different countries:

- Energy and Environment Agency of Arràbida (Portugal)

- Union of Bulgarian Black Sea Local Authorities (Bulgaria)

- Municipality of Lezhë (Albania)

- Peyia Municipality (Cyprus)

- City of Kaštela (Croatia)

- National Energy Technological Cluster (Italy)

- Renewable and Sustainable Energy Lab - Technical University of Crete (Greece)

 

Furthermore, the project includes other 7 associated organizations:

- Utility Company Tuzi LTD (Montenegro)

- The Environmental Protection Fund (Eco-fund) (Montenegro)

- City of Setúbal (Portugal)

- Cooperative Bank of Karditsa L.L.C (Greece)

- Greenesco Energy Services (Greece)

- Municipality of Rethymnon (Greece)

- LEZHA INVEST (Albania)

 

The project emphasizes a comprehensive approach that integrates technical, socio-economic, and environmental aspects into the planning and execution of local energy strategies, in the perspective of contributing to reduce CO2 emissions in public lighting across the Euro-MED region. Therefore, the expected results of the project are:

• Enhanced energy efficiency and reduced CO2 emissions in public lighting, thanks to a jointly developed strategy and implementation tools;

• A methodology for financing these optimizations, which includes engagement with the banking sector and establishing subsidy schemes for public lighting investments;

• The scaling of solutions based on tested activities and the implementation of a knowledge transfer campaign aimed at optimizing public lighting across the region.

 

The ProLIGHTmed project activities began on January 1, 2024, and will end on September 30, 2026, for a total project duration of 33 months.

 

Project budget: 2.949.785,00 € (Interreg Funds: 2.359.828,00 €)
