The Greek Ministry of Environment and Energy has announced an extension of the application deadline for the 'Exoikonomo - Epichiro' program until February 13. This initiative is aimed at improving the energy efficiency of businesses in the tertiary sector. By extending the deadline, more enterprises will have the opportunity to prepare and submit comprehensive applications for energy upgrading projects through the official online platform provided by the program.

The 'Exoikonomo - Epichiro' program is part of Greece's National Recovery and Resilience Plan and is designed to reduce energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. This initiative focuses on enhancing the energy performance of buildings and operational systems within businesses, thereby providing a pathway for significant environmental improvements. The program also highlights Greece's commitment to sustainable development and energy efficiency.

Businesses looking to participate in the program can consult the Program Guide and eligibility criteria to ensure they meet the necessary requirements. This extension aims to widen participation and ultimately contributes to the national goal of decreasing energy usage and promoting a greener economy, aligning with broader European Union objectives.
