CENN, with the EU support, in cooperation with UNDP and within the framework of the “Rural Communication and Awareness Campaign for Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Technologies” initiative, hosted the Energy-efficient Technologies Ideathon in Bulachauri Green Center.
Twenty-six participants from the target municipalities – Khulo, Keda, Akhalkalaki, Borjomi, Kazbegi, Tetritskaro, Dedoplistskaro, and Lagodekhi – took part in the Energy-efficient Technologies Ideathon.
Within the Ideathon, participants gained knowledge and experience in energy-efficient technologies. Furthermore, during the field visit to the Bazaleti Green Engineering Center, they had the opportunity to learn more about the principles of operating energy-efficient technologies.
As a result of the knowledge gained, the participants, with the help of facilitators and experts, learned about and developed ideas for the following energy-efficient technologies: Thermal insulation; Handmade solar water heaters; Solar factory water heaters; Solar air heaters.
The project is supported by the European Union (EU) and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) under the European Neighbourhood Program for Rural and Agricultural Development (ENPARD).
