Investments may include production equipment (machinery, ovens, refrigeration, etc.), heating-ventilation-and-air conditioning (HVAC) equipment, auxiliary equipment (pumps, motors, compressors, etc.), building related energy efficiency measures (insulation, windows), renewable energy solutions (solar PV panels, solar water heaters, solar dryers, etc.), but also equipment used in energy audits and energy assessments.
A number of online workshops will be organized to help women entrepreneurs to better assess and understand the suitable solutions for a more efficient use of energy.
