Aid plan for energy efficiency and energy saving projects
A new piece of news is being highlighted in all the media in favor of the energy efficiency and energy savings in different sectors. The Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism has just announced that it will proceed to allocate168 million euros for a plan for energy efficiency and saving projects through the Institute for Energy Diversification and Saving (IDAE).
These lines of action are specified in different aid programs which have been approved by the IDAE Board of Directors, the body that will administer the direct aid and support for financing that have been articulated.
The programs are endowed with funds from the National Fund for Energy Efficiency and the General State Budgets (2015), and may be co-financed with the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), in the Operational Program for Sustainable Development before 2014 - 2015 . (HERE more information about the ERDF)
New aid energy saving and efficiency plan
The approved direct aid and financing support programs are implemented within the framework of the National Energy Efficiency Action Plan between 2014 and 2022(Other documentation of interest HERE) that will allow Spain to meet the savings objectives derived from Directive 2012/27 / EU. (This Directive obliges Member States to achieve a cumulative energy saving target before December 31, 2022, which, in the case of Spain, has been calculated at 571 ktoe / year)
Four lines of action will be carried out:
- Energy rehabilitation of buildings.
- Transport
- SME
- Large company in the industrial sector and outdoor lighting
It is estimated that the savings from these programs will be equivalent to the annual consumption of more than 150,000 families and will prevent the annual emission into the atmosphere of more than 440,000 tons of CO2.
