Municipality of Avrig

 

 
About  Avrig
The Municipality of Avrig inhabited by 14.000 people is LOCATED in the heart of Romania, at the foot of the Fagaras mountains, close to an international airport.
The Avrig vision is:  “ to become one of Romania's leading centres for renewable energy by 2020 and to become energy independent by 2030. This will result in new jobs, lower utility bills and a city that is known as a good place to invest, work, live and visit.”
In order to fulfill its vision, the municipality has developed  a programme called “ Avrig Local Energy Programme” approved by the Local Council in June 2010.
The priorities of Avrig contained in its Local Energy Programme include:
  • Energy production from RES
  • Development of the energy infrastructure
  • Environment protection and conservation
  • Waste management
 
 
Avrig and the RENERGY project
The vision of Avrig is to become one of Romania’s leading centres for RES by 2020. This aim is reflected in strategic documents of the city that focus on the
development of energy infrastructure, RES-based systems, environment protection and is supported by intensive communication activities. Avrig can CONTRIBUTE to RENERGY by bringing Eastern-European knowledge and ideas on RES and EE development, drawing attention to the regionspecific problems in the field.  The Municipality wishes to BENEFIT from the project through the intensive transfer of know-how and good practices and direct access to relevant European experience, as well as through becoming member of a European network that supports local promotion and improvement of the RES potentials of Avrig. Participation in RENERGY offers Avrig the possibility to strengthen its leading position in a regional context as a key promoter of sustainable energy development and become a model for other cities in the region and across the country.
