Join our online training and we will equip you with the tools and standardized EPC contract and tender documentation that will allow you to:

  • Evaluate the readiness level of your public lighting  to undergo smart EPC modernization.
  • Make your project more attractive and financially viable by integrating energy and non-energy services (for example Smart City components, air quality sensors, traffic management, extended Wi-Fi and next generation cellular communications like 5G or electric vehicle charging stations) into one tender process.
  • Attract ESCO companies to tender for small-scale projects since the standardised documents help them execute due diligence and make offers in a relatively short time period.
  • Explore the effectiveness of additional investments in EPC projects non-related to public lighting.

You may also be inspired by the case studies of cities that have already used our smart EPC concept (for example, th city of Karlovac in Croatia).
