Projectdetails

Introduction

SmarTA is a Technical Assistance (TA) project for Portugal, which will support public, private, and social promoters of sustainable energy investments in the preparation and implementation of their projects.

Objectives

More specifically, the TA services will offer technical expertise including financial and legal evaluation to implement sustainable energy projects. The objectives include:

  • Overcoming barriers to investment
  • Raising investment
  • Complying with legislation and policy
  • Increasing awareness of developments and opportunities in sustainable energy sectors
  • Promoting societal awareness of the advantages of such investments, including renewable energy communities (REC) and energy performance contracting (EPC)

Purpose

The purpose of this TA is to provide the conditions for the development, investment, and sustainable management of sustainable energy projects in Portugal.

Background

The project builds on two very successful previous H2020 Project Development Assistance projects (BundleUP), each with over €40 million of documented investment deployed in the public and private sectors. SmarTA aims to continue their legacy and established networks by focusing on pushing the boundaries of EPC and fostering REC, including citizen-led renovation actions.

Coordination

To this avail, the project is coordinated by:

  1. Goparity, the leading European crowdlending platform for sustainability
  2. The Portuguese Energy Agency ADENE, mobilizing and capacitating central and public authorities
  3. Innovative testbeds, including municipal and inter-municipal communities
  4. Coopernico, a leading renewable energy cooperative with ties to the social and cooperative sectors
  5. A first-of-its-kind pilot in the 2023 Citizen-Led Renovation Service from the European Commission
