Poland

Project observers from Poland:

Municipality of Gdynia

logo GdyniaGdynia is the third largest seaport in Poland on the south coast of the Baltic Sea. It currently has about 247 thousand residents. More than 45% of the city area is covered by the forests. Gdynia protects its natural resources and landscapes through various environmental activities aimed at, among others, reducing energy consumption and CO2 emissions. Therefore the city has become the observer of the EURONET 50/50 project.

A perfect complement to the previously carried out thermal retrofit of 17 educational buildings (which made it possible to achieve 40% energy savings) would be active involvement in the EURONET 50/50 project, which demonstrates how proper monitoring of energy consumption, educational actions and change of habits can help to increase energy and money savings.

Union of the Municipalities of the Wisłoka River Basin

logo WislokaUnion of the Municipalities of the Wisłoka River Basin is seated in Jasło and comprises 22 municipalities from the province of Malopolska and Podkarpackie. It is aimed at improving the natural environment and promoting sustainable socio-economic development of this territory.

Therefore numerous projects are implemented by the Union, focused on the water quality improvement by reordering waste water management, waste management, tourism development and environmental education. Precisely because of the member municipalities interest in this subject, as well as the possibility of widespread promotion of EURONET 50/50 MAX results, the Union decided to become the project observer.
