PRIME (Private Investments Move Ecopower) promoted participatory sustainable energy projects in public buildings. The necessary investments needed for projects involving Rational Use of Energy (RUE) and/or Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in public buildings are raised using private capital from citizens and local stakeholders.

PRIME engaged the users of a building to play their part in climate protection. The participating cities promoted, facilitated and prepared the ground for sustainable energy projects that they can contribute to.

PRIME developed practical and adaptable models for reducing CO2 emissions from public buildings. The flexibility of the tools means that they can be used by cities and towns across Europe, thus avoiding the costs for developing strategies on their own. Moreover, the development of an easy-to-implement action package, including best practice examples and tried and tested approaches, contribute to lowering the costs for implementing RES and RUE projects for municipalities.
