Stakeholders attend meeting on benefits of Energy Management Systems

Stakeholders have attended an information meeting on Energy Management Systems, a project funded by the European Union and implemented by UNDP, held at Ledra Palace.

The 15 January meeting, which aimed to promote energy efficiency and sustainability, was attended by Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot businessmen and speakers referred to studies, including Cypriot companies that have achieved ISO 50001 certification for efficient energy management.

In his welcome address, Stefan Simosas, Head of Cooperation of the European Union Program Support Office in Nicosia, said, inter alia, that access to affordable, reliable and sustainable energy is a global challenge, and of utmost importance for private companies.

He further mentioned that "by introducing an Energy Management System, a company can improve its competitiveness on the market while contributing to a sustainable future for all".

Simosas added that this could apply to the whole of Cyprus and companies from both communities could cooperate on these important issues, noting that the European Union promotes the introduction of systems in order to improve energy efficiency and contribute to Europe's energy transition.

In his welcome address, Head of UNDP Cyprus Jakhongir Khaydarov referred to the importance of energy efficiency both in terms of the environment and the economy "creating cost-saving opportunities and enhancing resilience."

"By adopting energy management systems, communities can reduce consumption and drive improvements, whilst collaboration between the Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot private sector is crucial for fostering trust and long-term cooperation. Let’s continue to inspire and empower each other for a more sustainable and resilient Cyprus", he added.

The EU-funded LIF Project, which supports local areas in managing infrastructure effectively, supports the introduction of Energy Management Systems in seven areas of the Turkish Cypriot community as part of the ongoing efforts to improve energy performance and efficiency.
