Az elmúlt hetekben megjelent az SMEnergy projekt utolsó hírlevele, amely összefoglalja a projekt legfontosabb eredményeit, a budapesti zárókonferencia tanulságait és a következő időszakra szóló terveket. Emellett az EU Duna Régió Stratégia 2026. I. félévi tájékoztató kiadványa is bemutatja a projekt magyarországi eredményeit.

A projekt ugyan véget ért június végén, de az egyik legfontosabb eredménye, az SMEnergy Platform továbbra is elérhető. A platform hasznos tudásbázist kínál a kis- és középvállalkozások számára, ahol többek között:
✅ energiaipari szakértőket és megbízható szolgáltatókat találhatnak;
✅ finanszírozási lehetőségeket ismerhetnek meg;
✅ országspecifikus információkhoz férhetnek hozzá - többek között Magyarország, Németország, Csehország, és Ausztria;
✅ önértékelő eszközzel felmérhetik vállalkozásuk energiafelhasználását;
✅ valamint kapcsolatba léphetnek az energiaátmenetet támogató szervezetekkel.

A hírlevél, platform, valamint a kiadvány a komment szekcióban található linken keresztül elérhető. 👇

Büszkék vagyunk arra, hogy az Energiaklub projektpartnerként részese lehetett ennek a nemzetközi együttműködésnek. Köszönjük minden partnerünknek és résztvevőnek a közös munkát! 💚

Thank you to everyone who joined us last week for the final conference of the Danube Region Programme SMEnergy project, "From Projects to Impact: Supporting SMEs’ Energy Transition", in Budapest!🤝

Over the course of the day, policy makers, development agencies, SME support organisations, energy experts, researchers, and SMEs from across the Danube Region came together to exchange ideas, share experiences, and discuss practical solutions for supporting SMEs on their energy transition journeys.

From inspiring keynote presentations and lively roundtable discussions to interactive workshops and networking opportunities, the conference showcased the achievements of the SMEnergy project and highlighted how one-stop shop models and collaborative approaches can continue supporting SMEs well beyond the project's lifetime.

We were also pleased to be joined by the GreetGeo project alongside our final conference. In a session called "The Road to Geothermal Investments", the event explored how geothermal and heat pump project ideas can be transformed into investment-ready opportunities, with a particular focus on SME engagement, financing mechanisms, and innovation support. The joint programme created valuable opportunities for cross-project exchange and fostered new connections between stakeholders working towards Europe's sustainable energy future.

A sincere thank you to all our speakers, partners, organisers, and participants for contributing to such engaging discussions and making the event a success.
