Short description of the overall project

At local level throughout the country the project will support the creation and developing the capacity of the newly created and existing Homeowners Associations (HOAs), which are intended to develop energy efficiency improvement projects and apply for financing to the newly established Ukrainian Energy Efficiency Fund.
