Smart Schools 2

The project represents continuation of the project Smart Schools from the 1^st Call for proposals. Project overall objective will be achieved through the implementation of cross-border cooperation activities that support energy savings, promote investments through renewable energy sources and encourage the population and all stakeholders to use sustainable energy solutions. The project envisages significant infrastructure works with the aim of switching to the use of 4,5 MW new renewable-energy capacities (biomass, solar energy) in 33 public facilities (primary and secondary schools) in the amount of over EUR 1.3 million. The project will annually generate 6.217.693 kWh of renewable energy, 4.217.693 kWh of energy savings, 1.834 t CO₂ emission-reduction and new 1.535 man-month green jobs. The project is a colourful combination of green investment, art and culture as innovative education tool, smart ICT technology and wide-scale energy-saving school competition. A special component of the project focuses on innovative educational content for both students and teaching staff as well as key decision makers.
