Impact

The purchase of heat pumps improves the efficiency of energy consumption compared to conventional solutions. This reduces the primary energy demand required to fulfill the same functions and, consequently, reduces greenhouse gas emissions.

Non-reimbursable technical assistance

REIF provides technical assistance to the hotel, ESCO's client, for the preparation of impact dissemination materials and gender awareness workshops.
