SHared knowledge for Energy renovation in buildings by Public Administrations
The main territorial challenge is to accelerate the implementation of EU Directives 2010/31/EU and 2012/27/EU regarding the existing stock of Mediterranean public buildings, given the specific conditions and difficulties related to EEB projects in the MED area and the associated potential of energy saving.
The project overall objective is to reinforce the capacities of Public Administrations at regional and sub-regional level so as to improve EE in their public buildings’ stock and reduce CO2 emissions. The expected changes as a consequence of SHERPA can be properly measured by means of the project outputs, all profitable for future EEB projects:
1.	Roadmap to develop and implement EEB strategies.
2.	Regional EEB strategies supporting SEAPs implementation.
3.	Regional and local EEB Policy Agreements and governance structures.
4.	Shared information system.
5.	Public awareness strategies, including planning and implementation of specific trainings in EEB.
6.	Innovative combination and optimization of EEB financial models.
7.	Capitalisation plan.
8.	SHERPA Online Capitalisation Forum.
9.	Capitalisation set of toolkits.
10.	Joint Action Plan integrating all SHERPA EEB projects.
Transnationality is crucial for SHERPA since merely local, regional or even national measures cannot secure the coordination and levelling of public actors with different skills, experience, development level and improvement potential, but a common framework given by the shared Mediterranean Sea context.
