1. INTRODUCTION
The FOSTErinMED project (Fostering Solar Technology in the Mediterranean area) is a
strategic project implemented under the framework of the ENPI CBC MED programme
(Priority 2 – Topic 3 – Solar energy) aimed at transferring know how on solar energy
innovation, share methodologies implemented and promoted in the Med area and
promote innovative solar energy technologies at civil society level. For this, the project
will ensure the transfer of know-how and technical competences to identified target
groups, including designers and private sector agents (especially SMEs), general public
and local administrators. Overall, the FOSTErinMED project – Fostering Solar
Technology in the Mediterranean area – intends to promote the adoption of
innovative solar photovoltaic (PV) technologies in the Mediterranean area.
The FOSTErinMED project partnership considers necessary to push further the
boundaries of the project and to generate synergies between projects addressing
similar issues (both standard and strategic projects) in order to redesign future
interventions in the Mediterranean solar scope.
Capitalisation is the process of building additional knowledge, based on the
information and knowledge produced and available by the consortium, and making it
available to external institutions and actors. It is designed to ensure that the project’s
experience is not confined to its own perspective, but that serves the community in
spreading the project impact. The implementation of new projects and the
development of new actions are facilitated by the preservation and transmission of
acquired experiences and knowledge outside the project scope and by involving
external stakeholders in its development.
The present document includes a brief description of the plan’s aims and objectives, in
accordance to the project proposal and the programming documents of the ENPI CBC
MED programme followed by a description of the groups of stakeholders addressed by
the plan. After this introduction, the actions to be performed and the tools to be used
are fully described. Finally, the plan concludes with specific capitalisation actions and
plans for each one of the 6 partner regions.
On the other hand, the capitalisation activities will be performed considering the other
project activities. Mainly, the present document should be implemented in close
collaboration with the communication & dissemination plan of the project so as to
ensure the maximum number of synergies between the related activities and to avoid
possible overlapping cases.

It is for this reason, that the present document must be seen as a guideline both for
the project partners and the external agents and networks with which they will
collaborate following the completion of the project.
Finally, ASCAME, as WP3 coordinator, will take the leading role in the capitalisation
process and will be responsible for the correct implementation of the plan by the all
the partners, both in terms of effectiveness and in the compliance with deadlines.

2. OBJECTIVES OF THE CAPITALISATION STRATEGY
The main objective of this plan is to ensure the capitalisation of the project results, to
ensure their continued operability, to raise awareness and to involve the largest
number of stakeholders in the discussions, debates, actions and initiatives triggered by
the project results and outcomes.
These activities will always ensure the cohesion with the project’s main objectives,
policy oriented initiatives and related action from external projects. Therefore, and
considering the project operational framework, the capitalisation plan will pursue the
following objectives:
• Monitor the capitalisation of specific projects in solar energy field;
• Encourage the creation of a bridge between strategic projects and standard
projects of ENPI and other programmes;
• Promote synergies between different projects trough the identification of
similar actions and the implementation of common activities; and
• Encourage the dissemination of the results achieved and the maintenance of
networks for the capitalisation of the results after the end of the project.
Moreover, in order to ensure the effective implementation of the capitalisation plan, it
is fundamental to set a clear framework and a common ground allowing all the
interested partners to identify the scope of action, both of the project and of its
foreseen continuation.
It is important, thus, that all the agents likely to get involved in the actions of the
FOSTErinMED project share the project’s scope and are familiar with the networking
guidelines so that they can facilitate the achievement of the capitalisation objectives.
Finally, another fundamental objective of the capitalisation plan is to set the guidelines
and the methodology for the exchange and transfer of information within the
operational networks of agents and stakeholders by using the tools and channels set
up during the project activities.

3. TARGET GROUPS
The capitalisation plan is intended to ensure the active involvement of those agents
most likely to have an impact on the development of solar photovoltaic (PV)
technologies in the Mediterranean area.
While a stakeholder matrix is proposed through WP4 to classify stakeholder intensity,
for the identification of the target groups to be targeted in the capitalisation strategy,
it is also suggested that the partners make use of the following matrix:

NN

In order to ensure the involvement of the major number of actors it is necessary to
identify the channels through which they will be approached and the necessary tools
to raise awareness amongst them.
These tools and channels will be identified and described in the action plan
description. For the effective implementation of these tools it will be important to
ensure the coherence between the former and the communication strategies foreseen
in the project.
Moreover, these tools will be enhanced by an intensive involvement of the local actors
in their identification; in this sense, region-specific channels and tools will be selected
taking into account the specific requirements and conditions observed in each region.
The knowledge of the local scenario and the availability of communication channels
will be important to trigger the development of capitalisation actions.

4. ACTION PLAN
Capitalisation actions require a common guiding principle that must be applied to all
the actions proposed within the framework of this plan. The different steps to be
conducted are organised according to the following phases:
a) Identification and analysis of similar projects in solar energy and of ENPI
projects (strategic and standard projects) realized
b) Optimization and maintenance of the results implemented.
c) Network and synergies among the projects addressing solar energy issues.
Exchange of best practices and transferability of the project results at the
conclusion of the project (i.e. new project proposals in the field of solar energy)
d) Identification of the expected impacts
a) Identification and analysis of similar projects in solar energy and of
ENPI projects (strategic and standard projects)
For the identification and analysis similar projects in solar energy and of ENPI projects
(strategic and standard projects) the partners will make use of the following table.

Name of the project PV PARITY - Definition of competitiveness for photovoltaics and
development of measures to accompany PV to grid parity and
beyond
Deliverable(s) or output(s)
that constitute the core good
practice(s) of the project
This project, co-financed by the Intelligent Energy Europe
programme of the European Commission, aims at identifying and
promoting the use of some measures that could complement or
replace the existing support schemes for the deployment of solar
photovoltaic (PV) energy installations throughout Europe.
These instruments would boost the steady expansion of PV
markets while bringing the highest possible benefits to the society
and to the energy system and while entailing maximally optimized
investments.
Ultimately, these measures would help reducing the
competitiveness gap of PV compared to fossil fuel technologies
and they would sustain the further growth of PV markets once
competitiveness is reached.
Project rationale The PV PARITY project aims at contributing to the achievement of
further PV penetration in the EU electricity market and to the
attainment of PV competitiveness at the lowest possible price for
the community.
Renewable energy technologies are crucial for reducing our
greenhouse gas emissions, diversifying our energy supply and
reducing our dependence on unreliable and volatile fossil fuel
markets.
Europe has recognised their importance by setting a 20% target of
their share in the EU final energy consumption by 2020. PV could
play an important role in the achievement of this target: the Set
for 2020 study, which was published by the European Photovoltaic

Industry Association (EPIA) in 2009, suggests that PV could cover
up to 12% of the EU electricity needs by 2020.
Almost 20 EU Member States have acknowledged the potential of
PV by establishing some support measures aimed at boosting the
deployment of PV applications and at bridging the
competitiveness gap between this technology and fossil fuel-
based ones. However, feed-in-tariff and green certificate schemes
have sometimes been criticised for being ineffective and too
expensive and they are often being subject to sudden changes.
Project essentials To define in a clear and comprehensive way the competitiveness
of photovoltaic (PV) the parameters defining PV Parity have been
determined and analysed.
The results lay on the analysis of parameters as electricity prices,
existing grid parity definitions and of the LCOE calculation as they
have been conducted by the consortium. In addition it will
conduct an analysis on PV investment, followed by grid and life-
cycle analysis.
To give an overall overview the PV policy strategy and the
corresponding regulatory framework on the road to grid parity
have been considered.
Good practice features • to define PV competitiveness
• to develop roadmaps to PV competitiveness for the target
countries
• to assess existing support schemes and develop alternative
incentives for PV
• to analyse costs and benefits of PV deployment
• to assess the relevance of PV electricity flows between Europe
and some MENA countries
• to analyse the impact of PV on the grid
• to develop policy recommendations for EU and national policy
makers

Name of the project BETTER - Bringing Europe and Third countries closer together
through renewable Energies (BETTER)
• Evaluation through case studies and integrated analysis of the
impacts that the implementation of the cooperation mechanism
in the studied countries can have in helping Europe achieve its
RES targets as well as the associated co-effects (market
opportunities, grid requirements, environmental and socio-
economic impacts, etc) for both Europe and third countries.
• An action plan to foster renewable energy production, transfer
and use in the EU member states as well as third countries
through cooperation initiatives highlighting its strengths,
weaknesses opportunities and threats.
• Policy recommendations with regards to: (i) the implementation
of the RES cooperation mechanism for each case study region
and for the European Union, (ii) the implementation of the joint
project with third countries mechanism in general and (iii) the
comparison of the third countries cooperation mechanism with
the other EU internal RES cooperation mechanisms.

• Practical guidelines for project developers to facilitate private
sector involvement in the deployment of mutually beneficial
renewable energy projects in third countries through the
cooperation mechanisms defined in the RES Directive
2009/28/EC.
• The establishment of a solid stakeholder network between
Europe and selected third countries to foster RES cooperation
and knowledge transfer, through the generation of knowledge
and dissemination material and activities in order advocate in
favour of EU RES cooperation mechanisms as well as RES
deployment.
Project rationale BETTER intends to address RES cooperation between the EU and
third countries. The RES Directive allows Member States to
cooperate with third countries to achieve their 2020 RES targets in
a more cost efficient way. The core objective of BETTER is to
assess, through case studies, stakeholders involvement and
integrated analysis, to what extent this cooperation can help
Europe achieve its RES targets in 2020 and beyond, trigger the
deployment of RES electricity projects in third countries and
create win-win circumstances for all involved parties. The case
studies focusing on North Africa, the Western Balkans and Turkey
will investigate the technical, socio-economic and environmental
aspects of RES cooperation. Additionally, an integrated
assessment will be undertaken from the "EU plus third countries"
perspective, including a quantitative cost-benefit evaluation of
feasible policy approaches as well as strategic power system
analyses. Impacts on the achievement of EU climate targets,
energy security, and macro-economic aspects will be also
analysed. The strong involvement of all relevant stakeholders will
enable a more thorough understanding of the variables at play,
identification.
Project essentials The BETTER (Bringing Europe and Third countries closer together
through renewable Energies) intends to address RES cooperation
between the EU and third countries in several dimensions. The
starting point is given through the cooperation mechanisms
provided by the RES Directive, allowing Member States to achieve
their 2020 RES targets in a more cost efficient way, and thereby
including the possibility to cooperate with third countries. Thus,
the core objective of BETTER is to assess, through case studies,
stakeholders involvement and integrated analysis, to what extent
cooperation with third countries can help Europe achieve its RES
targets in 2020 and beyond, trigger the deployment of RES
electricity projects in third countries and create synergies and win-
win circumstances for all involved parties.
The case studies focusing on North Africa, the Western Balkans
and Turkey will investigate in detail the technical, socio-economic
and environmental aspects of RES cooperation. Complementary to
these bottom-up analyses, an integrated assessment will be
undertaken from the “EU plus third countries” perspective,
including a detailed quantitative cost-benefit evaluation of
feasible policy approaches, as well as strategic power system

analyses. Moreover, co-effects such as impacts on the
achievement of EU climate targets, energy security and macro-
economic aspects will be analysed. The final outcome will be a
fine-tailored policy package, offering a concise representation of
key outcomes, guidelines for practical implementation of RES
cooperation and actions plans reflecting regional specifics.
Good practice features - Evaluation through case studies and integrated analysis of the
impacts that the implementation of the cooperation mechanism
in the studied countries can have in helping Europe achieve its RES
targets as well as the associated co-effects (market opportunities,
grid requirements, environmental and socio-economic impacts,
etc) for both Europe and third countries.
- An action plan to foster renewable energy production, transfer
and use in the EU member states, as well as third countries
through cooperation initiatives highlighting its strengths,
weaknesses opportunities and threats.
- Policy recommendations with regards to:
• the implementation of the RES cooperation mechanism
for each case study region and for the European Union;
• the implementation of the joint project with third
countries mechanism in general and;
• the comparison of the third countries cooperation
mechanism with the other EU internal RES cooperation
mechanisms.
- The establishment of a solid stakeholder network between
Europe and selected third countries to foster RES cooperation and
knowledge transfer.
- Generation of knowledge and dissemination material and
activities in order advocate in favour of EU RES cooperation
mechanisms as well as RES deployment.

Name of the project SF – ENERGY INVEST - Collaborative Actions for Triggering
Investments in Sustainable Energy Actions using Regional and
Structural Funds

• Increase of awareness in the EU on the benefits of fully realising
the funding potential that SCF offer for sustainable energy
investments, as well as the importance of these investments for
economic development, through the mobilisation campaigns in
9 regions, in particular those linked to the Covenant of Mayors.
• Providing a clear set of recommendations in using energy-
related Operational Programmes under SCF, their eligibility
criteria, administrative processes and decision making
procedures
• Innovative financing schemes particularly addressing the pre-
financing and co-financing of projects under SCF
• Creating a framework for exchange of information and
experience through the 9 mobilisation campaigns, international
events, panel discussion and workshops, bringing together
stakeholders from all fields
• Providing practical recommendations to improve the framework
conditions and practical implementation of SCF programmes in
the upcoming period 2014 – 2020, targeting DG REGIO and DG
ENER as well as stakeholders in member states with a focus on
the Managing Authorities
Project rationale The Structural and Cohesion Funds (SCF) represent a huge
potential for funding the implementation of sustainable energy
action plans in regions and cities. However, results from the
former projects dealing with the use of structural funds for
sustainable energy projects have identified several barriers for
using SCF to fund sustainable energy project. The SF-Energy Invest
project is set-up to tackle these barriers, with the aim to increase
the share of SCF money that is spent on sustainable energy within
the final phase of the programming period 2007-2013. Target
groups include the potential beneficiaries under energy-related
Operational Programmes of SCF, in particular municipalities
participating in the Covenant of Mayors. Also, the managing
authorities of the Structural and Cohesion Funds play an
important role, as well as other stakeholders such as banks. On
the one hand the project will provide practical support in the
development of SCF project proposals in pilot regions and on the
other hand will increase awareness through EU mobilisation
campaigns. In addition, the project will identify recommendations
for the upcoming SCF programming period 2014-2020.
Project essentials Increase of the share of SCF money that is spent on sustainable
energy within the final phase of the programming period 2007-
2013, as well as increase of the share of the total budget allocated
to RE and EE in the SCF programming period 2014-2020.
Good practice features • The project already gathered information on the suitable
operational programmes in the selected countries for investing
in the RES and EE fields
• The project team has reached managing authorities and

projects developers to contribute to the development of
recommendations.

Name of the project URBANSOLPLUS – Solar Thermal in Major Renovations and
Protected Urban Areas
• Installation of a relevant number of systems on large residential
buildings in the participating communities, corresponding to
about 5% of the newly installed solar thermal during the project
duration
• Capacity building for Local Authorities, Energy Agencies and
local stakeholders: - development strategy for promoting the
use of solar thermal in urban quarters, building renovation
sector and protected areas - Master plan for developing the use
of solar thermal in one representative urban block, quarter or
area - Practical implementation of models for developing solar
thermal in demanding urban areas
• At least 10 new and innovative solutions coming from the solar
thermal industry, regarding large scale plants and architectural
integration
• Modified and improved (protected) building codes or
ordinances: development of rules and requirements, instead of
exemptions, for solar thermal in renovation cases and protected
buildings. At least 13 improved building legislations are
expected.
• Increasing awareness and knowledge about solar thermal plants
in special situations and urban development.
Project rationale The project aims at allowing a major diffusion of solar thermal,
reducing the barriers to its use in major renovations in multi-
family buildings located in urban and/or protected areas.
Experienced partners will bring in best practice experiences,
coaching "replication partners" and also improving their
experiences and models. Practical actions in the participating
communities will be implemented, preceded by a study of the
local boundary conditions and needs and by the adjustment of
suitable schemes. Also an EU wide and strong dissemination
activity is foreseen.
Project essentials The project target groups (communities and local stakeholders)
will gain the necessary expertise to deal with diffusion of solar
thermal plants in demanding urban situations.

Good practice features • One of the important practical tools developed in this project is
the Feasibility decision base, an operative help for the
stakeholder: It has been challenging to develop a common
template regarding the content for this tool because e of the
very different starting point in each partner country. In the end
it was decided to keep the format quite open due to the
different situation and needs of the participating countries.
• Some methodological approach, e.g. the discussion about
Opportunities and Challenges within an exercise of SWOT
analysis of the local situations was very interesting and gave
important results: so we shall promote this kind of information
exchange in the webinars as a useful tool to follow-up
development strategies and master plans evolution.
• The consortium has looked deeply into how to find relevant
stakeholders &how to approach them. The project website
seemed to be an easy task at first glance. Gathering all
information, presenting it in appealing way and create all
national subpages was a real challenge. Organizing meetings
with stakeholders at national level was not always easy for
some partners. We have learnt how to attract stakeholders &
make them interested in the project results via website and
other dissemination materials.

Name of the project CO2FREE - Cooperating 2 Foster Renewables and Energy Efficiency
CO2FREE (Cooperating 2 Foster Renewables and Energy Efficiency)
tries to address the problem of climate change.
Aware of this CO2FREE partnership is translating good practices
into regional Action Plans (APs) implemented under the
Operational Programmes (OPs) of the EU Structural Funds
(Objective 1 & 2 OPs) in each region; to get political commitment
that regional APs will be implemented; to involve regional and
local actors in the AP preparation and to disseminate project
information at local, regional, national and EU level. The 10 Good
Practices shared within the project are: (1) North Karelia Bioenergy
Programme, (2) Green ICT in Västernorrland, (3) San Sebastián's
Best Energy project, (4) Donegal's Wood-burning systems
installation in public buildings, Non-Food use of crops and Wind
Turbine training programmes, (5) Carinthia's "Lebensland Kärnten"
sustainable transport project, (6) Avila's Intelligent Energy Europe
project "Probio".
Project rationale CO2FREE stems from the need identified by the partner regions to
address the problem of climate change and the dependency on
fossil fuels, and to seek ICT-based solutions for energy challenges
and new approaches to make transport more sustainable; the
partners have decided to tackle these issues through the exchange

of good practices and their transfer into their Regional Operational
Programmes. The partnership has emerged from the ERNACT
network, which has an established track record in developing and
implementing Knowledge Economy solutions in a regional context,
and 5 of the CO2FREE partners (ERNACT EEIG, Donegal, Derry,
ALAV and ARDI) had successfully implemented a previous
Capitalisation project -PIKE-. The remaining 5 partners (San
Sebastián, North Karelia, Carinthia, West Romania and Avila) all
have important good practices to share in the energy efficiency
and sustainable transport themes and have previously worked
with some of the ERNACT and/or CO2FREE partners.
Project essentials Sub-objectives are:
1. To translate the best practices mastered by the CO2FREE
partnership into regional Action Plans (APs) to be implemented
under the Operational Programmes (OPs) of the EU SF (Objective 1
and 2 OPs) in each region 2. To have political commitment those
regional APs will be actually implemented, both from the regional
stakeholders and the Managing Authorities of the OP. 3. To involve
regional and local stakeholders in the preparation of regional APs
4. To disseminate information about the project, its objectives, the
approach, results and lessons learned to a large audience at local,
regional, national and EU level
Each participating region will develop an AP to transfer the GPs
into their mainstream SF programmes. Main activities will consist
of Selection of the GPs (GP Transfer Pack, GP Transfer Workshop);
Adaptation of GPs (Study visits, GP transfer roadmaps, Thematic
seminars) and Commitment to implement the GPs (Local meetings
with MA, presentations to regional OP Monitoring Committees, AP
development and regional AP launches).
Good practice features Provide the regional and local authorities specific instruments to
address the challenge of energy efficiency and sustainable
transport, by jointly developing Action Plans in close cooperation
with regional stakeholders, to be implemented by making use of
mainstream Obj. 1 and 2 Structural Funds (SF) available in each
participating region

Name of the project Regions4GreenGrowth (R4GG) - Regional policy instruments and
approaches for improving access to finance and speeding up
investments in sustainable energy.
Regions4GreenGrowth is an initiative of EU regions who have
defined high sustainable energy ambitions and now encounter this
obstacle. The overall objective of the project is to equip these
regions with regional policy instruments, mechanisms and
approaches to improve access to finance for and speed up
investments in sustainable energy projects (e.g. renewable energy
generation capacity, energy efficiency measures) in their
territories.
Project rationale Project activities include the collection and documenting of
effective policy instruments in this field from partners and other

actors. During Peer Reviews the partners will tackle the specific
challenges of each partner region and present them with tailor
made packages of policies and instruments to speed up
sustainable energy investments. And a specific method for
creating a public-private cooperation structure for investments in
sustainable energy, developed by Flevoland, will be passed on to
the partners in a Master Classes series, and implemented in 3
partner regions. Project achievements will be documented in a
Guide on methods and implemented Good Practice and widely
disseminated.
Project essentials The Regions4GreenGrowth project aims to boost investments in
sustainable energy by exchanging experiences between the 15
partners. During the first semester of the project all activities
related to management, communication and the content were
started up. The partners collected and described 18 good
practices. The project works with the so called peer review
methodology. During a peer review, a host region is visited by a
team of experts from other regions to assess the regional situation
on a specific topic. After the study visit, the peer team delivers an
advice to the region. This semester, the peer review methodology
was adapted to the topic of the project; how to stimulate
investments in sustainable energy. During the first peer review
workshop in Rome the methodology was explained and discussed
with the partners and the first 3 peer reviews (Valencia,
Västernorrland and Noord-Brabant) were prepared in groups.

Name of the project DYEMOND SOLAR - DYEMOND SOLAR – Innovative Technology for
Low Cost Production of Energy Efficient Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
Pilot plan that:
• Produce transparent DSCs with higher efficiencies.
Transparent DSCs will provide freedom for architects to
combine functionality with aesthetic design and allow true
integration of solar cells into urban environments and
building facades.
• Contribute towards environmental objectives under the
European Commission, including climate and energy targets
to be met by 2020, known as the "20-20-20" targets. These
are:
A reduction in EU greenhouse gas emissions of at least
20% below 1990 levels
20% of EU energy consumption to come from renewable
resources
A 20% reduction in primary energy use compared with
projected levels, to be achieved by improving energy
efficiency.
• Make Europe a major research and manufacturing centre of
the next generation of solar cells. Europe forms the largest

market for solar cells and this is a rich test-bed environment
for one of the most promising photovoltaic technologies.
Project rationale Power generation constitutes 20-25% of CO2 emissions and is
therefore a main focal point in attempts to reduce such emissions.
The global solar energy resource is about one thousand times
larger than any other carbon-free energy source. The additional
annual demand for carbon-free energy could, for example, be
provided by just 1.5 hours of global irradiation from the sun.
However, sunlight has to be converted into a useable energy form
at a reasonable cost. Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) is
one of the most promising technologies for achieving this.
Photovoltaic (PV) technologies have shown an impressive
exponential growth of approximately 40%/yr during the last
decade.
Project essentials The overall objective of the project is to demonstrate a cost-
effective means of producing transparent DSCs, based on a
patented technology that uses one-dimensional photonic crystals
(1DPCs) to improve the efficiency and colour of solar cells. The
demonstrated prototype production system will be a pre-
industrial-scale system, i.e. a fully functional production line,
which will serve as a base model for an industrial-scale operation.
Expected results: The NLAB Solar technology will lead to the
following quantitative environmental improvements when
compared with the current state-of-the-art technology:
• A 30% reduction of 30% in production costs;
• A 50% reduction in embedded energy from production;
• A 40% reduction in CO2 emissions in comparison with silicon

Name of the project MEDICOOL - Demonstration plant of a smart solar cooling/heating
system in a pharmaceutical warehouse for validation,
demonstration and transfer of an innovative cooling system.
The MEDICOOL project is based on the apparent paradox that the
heat generated by the sun can be used for cooling. The capture of
solar energy makes the cooling of water by a sorption cycle
possible. The cooling machine that uses this cycle also uses as a
power source water heated via solar panels. This solar thermal
cooling system will reduce CO2 emissions by 263 tons a year,
reaching an annual energy savings estimated in 1,130 megawatts

through a clean, fast and efficient source of power.
Project rationale The demand for cooling technology is rapidly increasing in many
parts of the world, including in most EU Member States. However,
the use of products such as fans and air-conditioning systems
results in a dramatic increase in electricity demand on hot summer
days. This causes an unwanted increase in the use of fossil and
nuclear energy and threatens the stability of electricity grids. The
pharmaceuticals sector has significant cooling needs. The
European Directive 2001/83/EC (as amended by Directive
2004/27/EC) on the Community code relating to medicinal
products for human use, and subsequent national legislation,
requires specific temperature and humidity conditions to be
maintained for the storage of medicines. In Spain, the requirement
to store medicines at 25º C ± 2º C and humidity levels of 60% ±5%
creates a significant cooling demand. Temperature control is
particularly difficult to achieve, since the buildings that serve as
warehouses for pharmaceutical products are normally large
buildings with high energy demands.
Project essentials The MEDICOOL project aims to develop and demonstrate an
innovative solar technology solution for the heating and cooling of
medicine storage warehouses in Spain. It furthermore seeks
facilitate the transfer of the process to other areas. The project
will develop a prototype solar-based cooling system, which will be
installed in a pharmaceutical storage centre. The system will be
monitored and evaluated to assess the success of the process and
its constituent parts during operation. The project aims to achieve
optimal performance of the new technology and demonstrate that
it is a technically feasible solution for reducing energy demand for
cooling by more than 70%. There will also be additional benefits in
terms of more efficient heating during colder months. Technical,
economic and adaptation studies will also assess how to better
apply the innovative solution at different scales, to other sectors,
and in other areas. This will help to better understand the most
efficient performance systems for different conditions.
Expected results:
• Demonstration and practical application of a new sustainable
solar cooling system;
• A 70% (795 000 KWh/yr in real terms for the pilot plant), or
more, reduction in the energy needs of medicine
warehouses;
• Associated annual emissions reductions of: 190 tonnes of
CO2; 766 tonnes of SO2; 626 tonnes of NOx; 4 140 cm3 of
radioactive residues of low and medium activity; and 508 g of
high radioactive activity residues;
• Economic savings of €105 000/yr for the pilot plant from
cooling alone; and
• A decreased threat to the stability of electricity grids.

Name of the project Sustainable Construction Centr - The setting up of a competence
centre for environment equitable construction
• Environmental implications: After the three year project,
craftsmen, architects, engineers, students, clients and co-
workers of administrations have taken on board and
supported the Competence Centre of Environment-
friendly Construction. Through training and awareness
raising activities among these target groups,
environmental awareness within the building field was
affected positively. While becoming increasingly well
known during the course of the project, an increasing
number of inquiries were registered at the Competence
Centre. The consultancy services were used in particular
by craftsmen and specialised planners. As a consequence,
clients, craftsmen and planners employed more
environmentally compatible construction materials and
construction methods. For the realisation of ecological
construction projects qualified craftsman are available at
the Competence Centre. They have an important
multiplier role for environmentally friendly construction.
The replacement of the old, highly polluting electric
heating system of the Competence Centre, by a pollution
free and carbon dioxide-neutral demonstration unit for
the use of regenerative energies, resulted in a clear
reduction in environmental pollution. With the
production technology for hemp light loam stones, a
technology was developed that makes the production of
a pollution free construction material with a minimum
amount of energy and the use of native raw materials
possible . With the revival of traditional lime technologies
and the regional supply of lime products, a material was
made available, which is used as an ecological alternative
to conventional construction materials.
• Transferability of project results: The concept could be
applied nationally and in other regions. The setting up of
similar institutions should be encouraged, since a centre
of this kind, with all its supraregional activities, becomes
effective, above all, as a contact point for a particular
region. A cross-linking of these centres for the technical
exchange and development of synergies could be useful.
Furthermore, the concept is also transferable also at the
European level, but the special contents and emphasis
would have to be examined and adapted to the
respective national situation. The Competence Centre of
environmentally friendly construction is available as a
contact partner and can offer support, in particular to the
future European Union Member States, e.g. through the
supply of materials or by technical consultation.
Interested institutions and organisations can use the
training courses which have been developed through the
project. Moreover, the production technology of hemp-
light-loam-stones and lime technologies developed
through the subprojects are suitable transfer and use in
other regions of Germany and Europe. During the course

of the project, the model effect of the Competence
Centre led to the establishment of further salvage centres
for historical building materials in Central Germany. The
transferability of the project results is guaranteed by the
continuation of the Competence Centre of Environment-
friendly Construction by the project partners.
• Innovation of the project: The key innovative approach of
the project lies in the consolidation of the different
project topics and target groups. By the combination of
public relations, and further education through the
practical development of the project, a new quality was
achieved. Another innovative aspect of the project was
technology developed for the production of hemp - loam
stones.
• Jobs creation: Within the LIFE project and with regard to
the production of stones, five new full-time jobs were
created at castle Trebsen. Further use of this technology
could lead to further job creation at a national and
international level.
Project rationale In 1992, 179 nations approved the agenda 21 in Rio de Janeiro,
which was the basis, for sustainable development. At the heart of
sustainable development is the simple idea of ensuring a better
quality of life for everyone, now and for generations to come. A
widely-used international definition is 'development which meets
the needs of the present without compromising the ability of
future generations to meet their own needs'. In connection with
this, environmentally friendly construction is significant because
the use and the demolition of buildings have strong impacts on the
environment and the stock of natural resources. Energy
consumption causes the emission of climatic relevant gases and
pollutants and the production and processing of construction-
materials, the sealing of areas in the course of new building
activities and the enormous waste volume, lead to important
environmental consequences. The Centre for Environment of the
Chamber of Handicrafts, in Leipzig, and the Promoting Association
For Craft And Preservation of Historical Monuments Schloß
(castle), Trebsen, are both involved in awareness raising and
educational activities targeted at craftsmen and other interested
parties in the technical preservation of historical monuments and
environment friendly construction. Both institutions were involved
in the educational centre for the training and further education of
employees as well as architects and engineers in the building and
construction trade.
Project essentials The overall objective of the project was to generate awareness in
environmentally friendly construction among all those involved in
the field of construction. In this way, environmental interests
would be strengthened in the field of construction and a lasting
development would be promoted in this area. In order to reach
this objective, a Competence Centre for environmentally friendly
construction would be developed and continued by the project
partners beyond the LIFE project. The creation of the Competence
Centre for environmentally friendly construction would be based
on the realisation of the following goals:
• creation of an advisory board dealing with topics of

environmentally friendly building;
• creation of a demonstration workshop of environmentally
friendly building;
• construction of a sample building with loam;
• construction of a demonstration unit on the use of
regenerative energies;
• development and testing of a technology for the
production of hemp-light-loam-stones;
• revival and spreading of historical lime technologies on
the basis of regional raw materials;
• setting up of an examination laboratory of the energetic
quality of buildings, the examination of building-loams,
the analysis of finery and masonry mortars as well as for
the investigation of building damage;
• development, supervision and evaluation of further
training courses for specialists in solar technology,
salvage and ecological building;
• use of multinational contacts for project presentation
and;
• public relations work through participation in fairs,
seminars, workshops and information meetings,
development and distribution of brochures and other
information materials, presentation of exhibitions,
publications in the media, internet presentation and
integration of project contents into the touristic offers of
Castle Trebsen.
The project mainly targeted the craftsmen of the major and minor
trades of building. However architects, engineers and clients were
also addressed.

Name of the project COllaborative framework for energy EFFICIENT SME systems
CO-EFFICIENT
Not yet developed
Project rationale CO-EFFICIENT is aiming to advance innovation and already
available technologies for energy efficiency and use of
renewable resources, in operations and production
processes of Mediterranean SMEs. The project consortium
believes that there are important organisational, financial
and technological obstacles, which impede the
advancement of SMEs. Especially if compared to large
companies, SMEs are generally slow to adopt energy

efficient solutions. One of the crucial problems is that there
is not enough communication and coordination between
the R&D sector and SME systems, which evidently prevents
technology and know-how transfer.
Project essentials The premise, on which this project is based, is that a
permanent collaborative framework for energy efficiency
and use of renewable resources linking SMEs, the R&D
sector, as well as other institutional stakeholder in the
Mediterranean area, will be able of improving collaboration
between SMEs and the R&D sector and inducing important
behavioural and technological changes in the field of energy
efficient operations and production processes. The main
objective of this framework will be the set-up of a living lab
environment, active in all partner countries in which SMEs
as final users and R&D organisation as the main developers
will collaborate to develop new solutions for better use of
energy in production and operations.

Name of the project ECOFUNDING
Not yet developed
Project rationale ECOFUNDING aims to create a new structure to promote

investment and access to energy and eco-innovation funds
in the MED area in a key moment for European strategic
development where two factors occur: a major credit and
investment crisis and an excessive dependence of the
southern Europe economies on energy.
Project essentials The first set of activities aims to incorporate the results of
other projects and policies developed in the MED area in the
involved countries in a single instrument for financial
support: the catalogue of public and private funds including
all financing resources. To arrange these products, a
transnational platform of global access services will be
created, where other instruments to facilitate financial
management and innovation of SMEs will be included:
financial simulators, project search, search of green
technology and supporting tools to develop business plans,
among others. ECOFUNDING wants to achieve concrete
results and reach enterprises. To this end, the project will
set in motion SMEs consulting services to facilitate the
management of the services offered in the platform. At the
same time, innovative tools (not available in the market) will
be designed allowing a significant advance in the state of
the art: financial self-diagnose, bank rating calculator
system and an online financial dossier.
Good practice features The potential of collaboration with FOSTER mainly in what
referes to the financing and adoption of solar technologies
could be of great interest

Name of the project Mediterranean Building Rethinking for Energy Efficiency
Improvement (Marie)
The project has developed a set of clear policy
recommendations and procedures dedicated to the
improvement on energy efficiency as well as a
comprehensive list of good practices and pilot experiences.
Project rationale MARIE aims to improve Mediterranean building energy
efficiency (EE) and exploit the opportunities presented by
EU policy and directives on EE in Buildings, taking into
consideration the distinct characteristics of the MED space
and creating more suitable socio-economic conditions in
order to meet the following challenges: - The need for new
regulations and institutional tools in response to the new EU
EPBD recast. - The lack of financial mechanisms able to
stimulate energy efficient refurbishment of buildings. - The
SME dominated buildings sector requiring external support
in order to stimulate innovation in the provision of

adequate services and products for energy refurbishment of
buildings. MARIE includes 3 groups of Pilot Actions (PA) to
test and develop solutions in response to these challenges.
The final result of the project will be the MED Building EE
Strategy (MEDBEES).
Project essentials The MARIE vision is to allow the countries of the
Mediterranean basin to develop a common policy in
relation to energy renovation of buildings by creating a
socioeconomic context and more appropriate technical
and financial leverage capacity.
The MARIE project aims to become a permanent set of tools
for the countries of the Mediterranean.
Based on an assessment of demand and supply the project
aims to identify and supply the points of leverage is such a
way which stimulates the market for energy efficiency
technologies in connection with buildings, taking into
account the climatic, socioeconomic and cultural
characteristics of the Mediterranean.
How does the project expect to achieve this?
• By developing a shared regional strategy between
the countries of the MED zone, including all relevant
parties: public administrations, businesses, users.
• Stimulating demand by raising awareness among
‘users’ regarding energy efficiency and the
implementation of financial incentives.
• By assisting smaller enterprises wishing to position
themselves on this ‘new market’ by means of
appropriate support and associated services.
• By testing innovative initiatives in the course of pilot
projects and by capitalising on results obtained.
• By assuring national and European level lobbying to
find points of regulatory convergence.

Name of the project DID-SOLIT
• Improved knowledge of the status of development
and market-availability of innovative small-scale
solar power technologies for in-buildings
applications
• 10 solar power applications implemented in 10
selected public buildings
• Increased solar power created (260 kWp) and
produced (380 MWh) in the selected buildings
• Enhanced interest of local private and public
stakeholders for decentralised applications of
innovative solar energy systems in public buildings
and facilities
• Innovative solar technologies, know-how and best
practices transferred
Project rationale The rise in energy demand has aggravated the dependence
on fossil fuels imports of most of the Mediterranean
countries. With a forecasted increase by 70% in energy
consumption over the next 20 years, there is an urgent need
to secure alternative energy sources especially for buildings
- commercial and residential - which share of total energy
used is higher than 40%, i.e. superior to the industrial or
transport sector.
Within this complex energy scenario, DIDSOLIT-PB aims to
implement small-scale solar systems for public premises
including innovative solutions such as photovoltaic glass-
substitute sheets, solar cooling or photovoltaic coverage of
buildings roofs and car parks shady-covers. Technology
transfer and design of dedicated financing instruments will
also be addressed by the project.
Project essentials To promote and implement innovative technologies and
know-how transfer of small-scale solar energy decentralised
systems in public buildings/premises
Good practice features • Mapping and analysis of existing small-scale solar
technologies

• Production of standard “Conceptual Designs”
concerning the solar-power applications developed
(including thermoelectric dish-stirling and parabolic-
trough, photovoltaic glass-substitute sheets and
thin-layer/film sheets)
• Drafting of reports addressing the rules and
regulations for installing decentralised solar power
systems in the regions concerned by the project
• Organization of conferences, workshops and
training sessions for promoting the developed solar
solutions

Name of the project MedSOLAR
• National energy grids and their weakness
characterized in Jordan, Lebanon and Palestine
• Set of recommendations defined to improve legal
frameworks and energy tariff schemes
• Power from solar energy increased in 3 public
buildings and 1 industry (between 500-800 m2 of
photovoltaic modules installed)
• Pilot plants tested, validated and monitored
Project rationale The countries of the Mediterranean area face the same
specific energy reality: the increase in the energy price and
the weakness of the electrical grid (impossibility of having
increase in the power supply, interruptions, etc.), which
reduces the security of supply in critical facilities such as
hospital and schools as well as the proper development of
the small and medium size industries. These problems are
common to the target countries of MED-Solar project
(Lebanon, Jordan and Palestine) where all the population is
actually connected to the grid, but with scarce quality and
regular interruptions and cuts-off.
Instead of using exclusively polluting and expensive fuel
generators against electricity interruption, the project
proposes to provide the generators with a solar
photovoltaic system for energy backup.

With the achievement of MED-Solar the energy situation in
the three target countries will improve by reducing energy
costs, decreasing the dependence on imported fuel and
improving the security of supply through the use of clean
energy resources.
Project essentials To promote and implement innovative technologies and
know-how transfer in the field of solar energy, especially
photovoltaic energy
Good practice features • Survey of the national regulations and legal
frameworks related to photovoltaic energy
• Identification of financing mechanisms allowing for
the development of photovoltaic projects
• Research and development on innovative
photovoltaic technologies
• Drafting of a socio-economic impact study to
demonstrate the cost-effectiveness and impact of
the pilot plants
• Creation of a cross-border network engaging several
public authorities, universities, SMEs, engineers, etc.

premature stage in Southern Partner Countries.
Notwithstanding the shared political commitment and a
common recognition of the huge solar potential of the
Mediterranean region, some barriers to solar energy
deployment and diffusion persist. These include amongst
others weak institutional frameworks, lack of competence
of energy practitioners, need of dedicated financial
instruments, inadequate perception on the benefits of solar
energy investments, subsidized prices of electricity
produced by fossil fuel plants and technical issues (such as
the quality of equipments and installations).
MED-DESIRE main priority is to achieve tangible results on
these challenges, removing barriers related to the legal,
regulatory, economic and organizational framework of
distributed solar energy technologies
Project essentials To facilitate the take up of distributed solar energy and
energy efficiency in the target regions, by achieving an
effective cross-border cooperation and by raising public
awareness on the related benefits for the environment and
for sustainable local development
Good practice features • Strengthened capacity of public administrations and
regional institutions

• 4 demonstrative plants implemented in Italy,
Cyprus, Egypt, and Jordan for a total power of 400
kW showing the benefits of the CS technologies to
20.000 end users coming from 20 Mediterranean
local communities
• Enhanced industrial perspective for CS technologies
• Reinforced technological and operational industrial
expertise of 200 energy professionals
• Fostered growth of local production chains with the
creation of new qualified jobs on CS systems

• Policy makers supported in the decision-making

process concerning incentives for solar energy
• Increased awareness of target groups and
institutional actors concerning the benefits of CS
technologies
Project rationale In the Mediterranean area, a large share of energy is
consumed by households and in buildings.
In addition to the dependence on fossil fuel, oil and natural
gas, the primary energy demand is growing at a regular
pace. Increasing the share of solar energy sources in the
overall energy mix is a crucial goal for the Mediterranean
area, as the exploitation of a sustainable renewable energy
source would contribute to climate change mitigation - an
issue of concern for the region due to its impact on
desertification, floods, coastal vulnerability - and to energy
security. Although impressive improvements have been
made in the recent years concerning the integration of solar
energy systems into conventional heating technology and
despite the availability of mature technologies, solar
thermal energy is still used in a rather small percentage of
buildings and generally, only for domestic hot water in
private houses.
To improve this situation, STS-Med will contribute to the
diffusion and development of Concentrated Solar (CS) small
scale integrated systems, a high energy efficiency
technology with a potential for replication across the
Mediterranean area.
Project essentials • To create a flexible toolbox of Concentrated Solar
(CS) applications by demonstrating their
effectiveness in public buildings and premises
• To deploy technologies from research and
development results through case studies analysis,
impact assessment and creation of demonstration
units
• To create new opportunities for the commercial and
industrial sectors notably by improving technical
skills of professionals involved and enabling SMEs to
set up a full supply chain in the solar energy sector
Good practice features • Design of CS applications toolbox and integration in
demonstration units
• Preparation of technical papers and feasibility
studies
• Identification of best policy practices and

benchmarks to boost the development of CS
technologies
• Drafting of market studies on CS systems demand in
the countries involved
• Creation of public-private technological clusters
• Technology qualification audits to integrate SMEs in
the energy supply chain
• Transfer of know-how and training activities for
energy professionals
• Organisation of dissemination and brokerage events

b) Optimization and maintenance of the results implemented.
As a result of this capitalisation plan and the communication activities, the main
outputs of FOSTER project will be optimized both by project partners and stakeholders
in order to ensure the continued transfer of knowhow in the solar energy field, to
implement a shared design methodology and to promote solar energy innovative
technologies at civil society level.
In this sense, the formulation of policy papers will ensure a starting point for the
management of the local legislations on solar energy compared and common
innovation proposals defined.
In parallel, training and information seminars will allow down cultural and normative
barriers that can delay the diffusion of solar technologies.
On the other hand, the maintenance of the website since three years after the
completion of the activities described in the Full Application Form, and the results of
the networking between similar project and initiatives will ensure the generation of
new activities related to the development of solar photovoltaic (PV) technologies in
the Mediterranean area in the future.
Beside all this, the produced outputs of the project should find a capitalisation line in
all those frameworks and programmes, with the final objective of: "Know how
transferred in the solar energy innovative field, shared design methodology
implemented and promoted, Solar Energy innovative technologies promoted at civil
society level".
Beyond the ENPI program, we refer to programs like:

• IEE programme
Intelligent Energy – Europe (IEE) offers a helping hand to organisations willing
to improve energy sustainability. Launched in 2003 by the European
Commission, the programme is part of a broad push to create an energy-
intelligent future for us all. It supports EU energy efficiency and renewable
energy policies, with a view to reaching the EU 2020 targets (20% cut in
greenhouse gas emissions, 20% improvement in energy efficiency and 20% of
renewable sources in EU energy consumption).
A large part of the programme budget is made available through annual calls
for proposals to support projects putting the concept of 'intelligent energy' in
practice. Carried out by public, private or non-governmental European
organisations, they support three main objectives - more energy efficiency,
more renewables, and better transport and mobility. This covers for instance
new training schemes, promotion campaigns, or the transfer of good practices
between EU countries.
• Interreg programme
Interreg is designed to stimulate cooperation between member states of the
European Union on different levels. One of its main targets is to diminish the
influence of national borders in favour of equal economic, social and cultural
development of the whole territory of the European Union.
The Interreg initiative is designed to strengthen economic, social and territorial
cohesion throughout the European Union, by fostering the balanced
development of the continent through cross-border, transnational and
interregional cooperation. Special emphasis has been placed on integrating
remote regions with those that share external borders with the candidate
countries.
The Interreg program is funded by the ERDF amounting to 7.75 billion euros,
and divided into three components:
• border cooperation (integrated regional development between border
regions), which includes A Interreg programs;
• transnational cooperation (formation of large groups of European regions),
which includes the INTERREG B programs;
• interregional cooperation (exchange of information and sharing of
experiences), which includes the Interreg programs C1, as well as URBACT,
INTERACT and ESPON program.

• LIFE programme
The LIFE programme is the EU’s funding instrument for the environment. The
general objective of LIFE is to contribute to the implementation, updating and
development of EU environmental policy and legislation by co-financing pilot or
demonstration projects with European added value.
LIFE began in 1992 and to date there have been three complete phases of the
programme (LIFE I: 1992-1995, LIFE II: 1996-1999 and LIFE III: 2000-2006).
During this period, LIFE has co-financed some 3104 projects across the EU,
contributing approximately €2.2 billion to the protection of the environment.
Projects financed by LIFE+ must satisfy the following criteria:
• Projects must be of EU interest, making a significant contribution to the
achievement of the general objective of LIFE+;
• They must be technically and financially coherent and feasible and
provide value for money;
• Where possible, projects financed by LIFE+ should promote synergies
between different priorities under the sixth Environmental Action
Programme, and integration.
In addition, to ensure European added value and avoid financing recurring
activities, projects should satisfy at least one of the following criteria:
• Best-practice or demonstration projects, for the implementation of the
Birds and Habitats Directives;
• Innovative or demonstration projects, relating to EU environmental
objectives, including the development or dissemination of best practice
techniques, know-how or technologies;
• Awareness-raising campaigns and special training for agents involved in
forest fire prevention;
• Projects for the development and implementation of EU objectives
relating to the broad-based, harmonised, comprehensive and long-term
monitoring of forests and environmental interactions.
• MED programme
The MED programme is a transnational programme of European territorial
cooperation. It is financed by the European Union as an instrument of its
regional policy and of its new programming period. It continues the tradition of
the European programmes for cooperation (previously named Interreg).

The transnational setup allows the programme to tackle territorial challenges
beyond national boundaries, such as environmental risk management,
international business or transport corridors. So far, 144 projects have been
programmed, co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF)
up to a rate of 85%.
With a budget of more than 250M€ (whose 193M€ of ERDF), the Programme
will launch, until exhaustion of its ERDF envelope, calls for projects to build
transnational partnerships aiming at meeting the priority objectives of the
Programme in the Mediterranean space.
The program objectives are:
• To improve the area's competitiveness in a way that guarantees growth
and employment for the next generations (Lisbon strategy).
• To promote territorial cohesion and environmental protection,
according to the logic of sustainable development (Goteborg strategy).
There are 4 major stakes and programme priority axes, but for the FOSTER
project activities mainly:
• Axis 1: Strengthening innovation capacities
• Axis 2 : Environmental protection and promotion of a sustainable
territorial development
c) Network and synergies among the projects in the field of solar energy
realized.
The main objective of the networking activities is to analyse and disseminate project
actions among interested agents and relevant projects addressing solar energy issues.
The actions conceived to generate such interactions will include dissemination events,
such as conferences, seminars workshops, and might result in publications or website
updates. Thematic networking activities promoted during the international WS
improved synergies and co-operation between partners and other relevant
stakeholders will also play a fundamental role in the generation of such networks.
Thematic networking needs to improve the exchange of information and knowledge
across national and international boundaries. The FOSTErinMED international
Networking Activities, conducted under the project implementation, aimed at
generating transnational interest in solar energy by involvement of stakeholders.

5. CAPITALISATION TOOLS
The outputs, directly or indirectly, generated by the project will be used by the
partners as capitalisation tools. In this sense, it is intended that every project
deliverable (based on its specific nature) will trigger the development of capitalisation
activities. A description of how this will be achieved is provided below:
a) Project’s website
Description: The aim of the project’s website is to be the main source of information
able to ensure the project largest visibility. The website will be translated in English,
French and Arabic and will be linked to other partner websites. It will contain
documents, reports and information about the project and its development.
Capitalisation: In this sense, project partners seen fit to keep it active since three years
after the completion of the activities described in the Full Application Form in order to
ensure the generation of new activities related to the development of solar
photovoltaic (PV) technologies in the Mediterranean area in the future.
How:
• Links to external project websites
• Agreement with external agents to integrate the project website in their
communication actions
b) Local points
Description: In order to more suitably capitalise the project’s activities and outputs, the
partnership has considered it appropriate to establish a local point for each one of the
6 partner regions.
Capitalisation: In point 6 of the present document a capitalisation plan for each local
point has been developed in order to optimize and ensure the maintenance of the
project results at the Mediterranean area in the solar energy sector.
How:
• See chapter below (regional capitalisation activities)
c) Networking conferences
Description: The aim of the networking conferences is to communicate the project
objectives and results of the project. Related to capitalisation activities, there are
planned two different conferences.

At the first one, that will take place in Alexandria, will be invited project managers and
stakeholders in the field of solar energy (PV) identified in the analysis phase. The event
is designed with the aim of creating synergies at institutional level.
The second one is the final conference that will be take place in Barcelona during the
last year of the project implementation.
Capitalisation: Both conferences will be an opportunity for discussion and exchange of
results obtained from similar projects, and at the same time, it represents a starting
point for the design of future initiatives. The expected result is the identification of
best practices, dissemination of results and creation of new synergies for future
projects. The Conference on solar energy topic allows the creation of a shared space to
discuss the experiences and results of each project in order to identify best practices
and to create synergies between projects and stakeholders involved.
How:
• Participation in sector-related conferences and events
• Meetings with representatives of external projects related to the field of activity of
the project
d) Context analysis
Description: As a result of the WP4. Context Analysis activities, the consortium will
develop a qualitative analysis report on energy consumption and production trends
and their relation to socio-economic and demographic changes as well as to different
measures to stimulate the adoption of Solar (PV) energy.
Capitalisation: This output will be a base to review the effectiveness of instruments
available in the partner countries for the promotion of social acceptability of
renewable energy, in particular solar technologies (PV) and the adoption of energy
efficient technologies and energy saving measures.
How:
• Identification of innovative lines of action
• Identification of funding lines for sector development
e) Policy papers
Description: Common policy paper proposals will be prepared following the
recommendations of the regional administrators responsible for implementing solar
energy projects.
Capitalisation: Policy papers will be distributed among those policy makers in charge of
implementing a favourable framework for the development of solar energy solutions.

These recommendations are expected to have an impact on the definition of new
regional strategies conducive to the promotion of solar energies.
How:
• Formal meetings with regional policy makers
• Identification of policy and regional strategy gaps on solar energy issues
• Meetings with authorities responsible for strategy implementation
f) Guidelines
Description: Implementation guidelines for a solar technology solutions training path
will be produced following the suggestions of the regional administrators responsible
for implementing solar energy projects. These guidelines will deal with solar
technologies and architectonic integration and will be made available to research and
professional representatives in the region (university students, designers and
installers) and will set the basis for the subsequent training path. The guidelines (and
the subsequent plan) will put the focus on the integration of solar energy technologies
in new and renovated buildings. The guidelines will be planned and drawn up by the
scientific committee during dedicated meetings.
Capitalisation: The guidelines for the training path can be seen as the basis for a more
consolidated formative corpus on solar energy issues. The integration of the training
guidelines in future academic syllabus is an expected impact of the capitalisation
actions. Contacts with academic and training institutions are fundamental for ensuring
the inclusion of the guidelines in the academic curricula.
How:
• Meetings with representatives of academia
• Meetings with agents responsible for educational programmes
• Identification of gaps in regional educational strategies
g) Training path
Description: Following the recommendations set in the guidelines the project will
define a training path that will be implemented at regional level. The training paths will
integrate three different groups (installers, designers and university students). The
courses resulting from this training programme will be implemented locally by each
partner and organised by specialised agencies in training activities.
Capitalisation: The training path developed by the project is intended to create a more
informed corpus of professionals of the solar energy sector. The corpus of knowledge
and the capacities invested in these professionals are expected to be integrated in the
operational development of their daily activities. In this sense, the organisation of

actions promoting and spreading this knowledge among the professional sector is seen
as a valuable capitalisation initiative.
How:
• Presentation of the training path in regional educational programmes of the
training path for future consideration in regional educational programmes
• Generation of inter-sector knowledge transfer initiatives
h) Pilot project
Description: 5 pilot test initiatives will be implemented focused on the implementation
of small solar panels (infrastructures) in public buildings. The pilot test will be awarded
following a tendering process in the regions. The results of the pilot test initiatives will
be presented to the relevant agents of the sector in a final presentation conference.
Capitalisation: The pilot test implemented in the project will result in the
establishment of small solar energy units in public buildings. Apart from the energetic
impact that these actions will generate (energy savings) they will need to be taken as
an example of how to promote the implementation of solar energy solutions in public
(and also, private buildings). The development of subsequent projects aimed at
transferring this knowledge to other initiatives can be seen as a crucial step towards
the capitalisation of the results.
How:
• Identification of future calls for proposals (for replication projects)
• Generation of inter-sector knowledge transfer initiatives

6. REGIONAL CAPITALISATION ACTIVITIES
Regional capitalisation activities will be conducted and monitored by the project
partners in order to ensure their coherence. In the implementation of these activities
the partners will count with the additional support of the local points (although full
responsibility will lie on the consortium). Local partners will be responsible for the
dissemination of the project results and for distributing informational materials to the
region’s relevant agents. To support these actions the regional partners may make use
of tools showcasing the activities of the project (photos and video of activities,
involvement of general public, key actions with sector representatives as well as the
progress of the pilot projects).
From a capitalisation perspective, local points are conceived as an instrument for the
optimization and maintenance of the project results at the Mediterranean area in the
solar energy sector. In this sense the activities and actions foreseen in each of the
participant regions (considering their particularities) are the following:
a) Spain (ASCAME) – Case Example
1) Related to the use of project’s website in the capitalisation plan, ASCAME will
incorporate a link on its website to the FOSTErinMED project web in order to
enhance the web accessibility and impact. This action is very important as the
project website can and should be reached by all target groups and could
effectively offer a real support to the different actors involved.
As Association of the Mediterranean Chambers of Commerce, ASCAME will
identify all the activities of the Mediterranean chambers of commerce related
to the project topic, and will request them to integrate in their respective
website links to the project website and information of the project activities.
In all this process, ASCAME will work in close cooperation with external agents
in order to enhance the complementarities between the different actor’s
activities.
2) Once ASCAME has identified local the corpus of relevant stakeholders and
organised formal and informal meeting with them, a criss-crossed Gantt matrix
will be generated so as to identify common activities, conference and events to
attend and expected impacts upon the agents.
Together with this, ASCAME will perform an analysis of valuable case studies
and best/poor practices as well as a transversal monitoring of similar and
related projects (on solar energy). The objective will be to bring out synergies

between projects addressing similar topics and to identify feasible cooperation
initiatives.
3) ASCAME will also manage the context analysis process at local level and will
develop a local mapping on energy consumption and production trends. This
analysis will be considered in relation to the socio-economic and demographic
changes produced as well as to different measures available to stimulate the
adoption of Solar (PV) energy.
By following the mapping results and the implementation of WP5 and WP6
activities, ASCAME will be able to encourage measures and activities on
stimulating interest and awareness about opportunities of the solar technology
at local level.
4) Through the resulted experience of the workshop for local administrators to be
held in Cagliari, ASCAME will be able to work jointly with local administrators
identified to draw up policy papers/proposals in solar energy field at local level.
5) Following the draft of the project policy papers and the identification of policy-
oriented stakeholders, ASCAME will organise formal and informal meeting
introducing the policy recommendations to policy the incumbent decision-
making bodies.
6) ASCAME will also conduct formal and informal meeting with representatives of
the region educational arena in order to introduce the project’s guidelines and
formative tools and to evaluate their integration in regional training
programmes.
7) In terms of capitalisation, the pilot projects will serve two purposes: whereas,
on the one hand, they will serve to materialise the project initiatives in visible
and perdurable actions, it will also allow the consortium to bring together a
variegated number of stakeholders in the process. The combination of a
feasible impact (case examples of solar technology implementation in new and
existing buildings) and the interaction with multiple agents of the sector
(architects, designers, etc) will facilitate the development of knowledge
transfer activities and the consolidation of this know-how within the sector.
8) Finally, ASCAME needs to identify the likeability of future activities (based on
the pilot test results). For this, it will be fundamental to identify agents willing
to take part in future actions and the availability of programmes and lines for
funding.
