📢 The “First Swallows” project has been completed, and the first positive effects and results are already being felt! The 16-storey block on Ștefan cel Mare Street in Bălți has been fully retrofitted for thermal efficiency and is now energy efficient. In the second half of the 2024–2025 heating season, residents recorded a 20% drop in heat consumption. 📉 According to technical estimates, in the next season the reduction in consumption could reach at least 35%. 📄 Follow the link for more details about the project, the process, the innovative co-financing mechanism used for the first time, and how this model can be replicated for other blocks across the country: 👉 https://bit.ly/evenimentBalti11iunie -------------------- ℹ️ The “First Swallows” pilot project was implemented by the Independent Think Tank Expert-Grup, with the support of the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Moldova, Slovenské veľvyslanectvo v Moldavsku / Slovak Embassy in Moldova, SlovakAid, the Secretariat of the Energy Community, and the Ministry of Energy of the Republic of Moldova.
