On 20-21st May 2015 ZREA, Latvia, organized a range of local workshops for the local authorities and general public on sustainable management of local SEAPS and with particular focus on green transport. The local stakeholders – municipalities and ZREA shared their knowledge and best practices on implementation of measures of Energy Plans within the changing market and environment. Green technologies – such as recently installed sun collectors for preparation of hot water were presented, green transport - electromobiles, which is a part of SEAPs but the first major steps in this direction were made in 2014, when a number of Zemgale region municipalities purchased electric vehicles. Now it was time to share the practical experience on what technical indices the electric vehicles had had in winter. The attractive part was the coming together of electromobiles which called together 35 of them, a team of Fortum Oy had arrived even from Helsinki!
