ECOS helps launch the HARP project
The kick-off meeting of the Horizon2020 project HARP (Heating Appliances Retrofit Planning) took place on 20-21 May.
Our Programme Manager Mélissa Zill and Communication Officer Pia Cencig took part in the meeting and presented the first ideas for the project’s communication work package, which ECOS is leading on.
Coordinated by the Portuguese Energy Agency ADENE, HARP will build on the results of previous projects to develop an application for consumers to obtain an Energy Label for their existing boilers and propose some more efficient alternatives. As a project partner, ECOS is building the project website and coordinates the communication at European level.
In addition, the project will also target consumers in five Member States in order to motivate them to replace their outdated and inefficient boilers.
We are thrilled to be part of the project, and look forward to seeing how ecodesign policies can work in practice to incite consumers to switch to more efficient heating appliances.
