The event was organized in collaboration with the RESINDUSTRY, SME POWER, and SMEPlus projects. (Interreg Europe 2021.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Altogether 51 people participated at the three-hour workshop to hear about related policy framework, policy instruments, and concrete good practices identified in the above-mentioned projects (Interreg Europe 2021).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SMEs &amp; Energy Policy Context<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>SMEs (small and medium enterprises) are the backbone of the economy. Around 13% of the global total energy demand is used in SMEs, therefore, related policies are targeted directly to SMEs. Sustainable energy use in SMEs, including the application of renewable energy sources and improved energy efficiency performance, can not only improve the environment and fight climate change but can save companies\u2019 money and thus boost their competitiveness. (Hunkin 2021.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SMEs face many barriers in the energy transition, including a lack of resources and expertise. Therefore, the EU\u2019s energy framework has made specific provisions targeting SMEs by requiring the member states to set up instruments for energy audits in SMEs (Article 8, Energy Efficiency Directive) and frameworks supporting renewable energy communities and self-consumption (Renewable Energy Directive). (Hunkin 2021.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2021\/08\/418_2021_Sustainable-Energy-in-SMEs-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"A woman by a table with a globe and windmill model in hands.\" class=\"wp-image-5032\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2021\/08\/418_2021_Sustainable-Energy-in-SMEs-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2021\/08\/418_2021_Sustainable-Energy-in-SMEs-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2021\/08\/418_2021_Sustainable-Energy-in-SMEs-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogit.lab.fi\/labfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2021\/08\/418_2021_Sustainable-Energy-in-SMEs.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Picture 1. The SME\u2019s energy transition is essential for meeting the carbon reduction targets. (Podrez 2021).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) affects SMEs the most from the existing energy policy framework. The 2018 EED includes an updated 2030 target of a 32,5% improvement in efficiency. (Directive 2012\/27\/EU.) This target may be revised in 2023 under the \u2018Fit for 55% package\u2019 of the European Green Deal. The &#8217;Fit for 55 package&#8217; updates the EU\u2019s 2030 climate and energy laws to reflect the 55% net emissions reduction target compared to 1990 levels. (European Parliament 2021; Hunkin 2021.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The recast Renewable Energy Directive (RED II) acknowledged SMEs as the key building blocks of the sustainable energy transition. Therefore, the EU countries are obliged to establish support schemes and remove barriers to foster the uptake of renewables by companies and citizens. The directive sets rules to achieve at least the 32% renewables target (to replace 32% of the total energy needs with renewables) by 2030 in the EU. RED II is currently being examined to further contribute to climate-neutral Europe by 2050 under the Green Deal. The draft is aiming for approximately a 40% share of renewables. (Directive (EU) 2018\/2001; European Commission 2021; Hunkin 2021.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regional policymakers play a key role in tailoring the European framework and supporting instruments on the local or regional level. In Finland, two projects closely cooperate on identifying sustainable energy possibilities in enterprises and how public authorities could support SMEs in their implementation. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.interregeurope.eu\/resindustry\/\">RESINDUSTRY &#8211; Policies for Renewable Energy Sources in Industry<\/a> is managed by LAB University of Applied Sciences and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.interregeurope.eu\/smepower\/\">SME POWER &#8211; SMEs Powering a Low Carbon Future<\/a> by Heinola city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#b3edfb\">Author<br><br><strong>Katerina Medkova<\/strong> works as an RDI specialist at LAB University of Applied Sciences and acts as a Project &amp; Communication Manager in the RESINDUSTRY project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">References<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Directive 2012\/27\/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 October 2012 on energy efficiency, amending Directives 2009\/125\/EC and 2010\/30\/EU and repealing Directives 2004\/8\/EC and 2006\/32\/EC.
