The document discusses challenges regarding energy efficiency and renewable energy in Mediterranean buildings. It notes that the Mediterranean area is lagging in moving towards nearly-zero energy buildings by 2020. It also faces specific barriers like traditional low emphasis on insulation and ageing building stock. However, investing in low-carbon transition for buildings can boost jobs and living standards. The ELIH-MED, MARIE and PROFORBIOMED projects show how EU support can encourage this transition. Representatives from these projects call for a new governance model and strategies to improve energy efficiency in Mediterranean buildings.

Summary of Intelligent Energy Europe (IEE) project-SMILEGOV
The IEE funded project Smarter Multi Level Governance (SMILEGOV) is examining the major barriers to creating a low carbon society on islands. It is bringing together the various stakeholders and the multilevels of governance required to achieve the EU target of 20% reduction in Carbon and 20% increase in renewable energies by the year 2020, ie less than 6 years from now. The crux of the project is to engage all stakeholders including islanders to agree to the Pact of Islands. The pact asks for commitment to examine and agree an island energy action plan within 12 months of signing the document.
Using the Pan European Island programme SMILEGOV, we are working with other islands as per the Pact of Islands. To date, Arainn Mhor is creating a story board, a platform to collaborate, creating a model that others can emulate by working together.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

1. RESPONDING TO CHALLENGES REGARDING
ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND RENEWABLE ENERGY IN
MEDITERRANEAN BUILDINGS
The Mediterranean area is drastically lagging with regard to moving towards the objective of the Nearly-
Zero Energy Buildings (NZEB) by 20201. According to latest studies2, if performances on energy efficiency in
the residential sector should pursue the current trend, in 2020 a gap close to 9.6 % will be recorded between
the EU targets (e.g. 20% on energy saving) and the real energy reduction3 in the Mediterranean area. This is
especially noticeable for low-income housing, which represents a significant share (about 40%) of the total
housing stock in the area, with important energy saving potential.
In terms of energy efficiency and renewable energy sources, the Mediterranean area faces some specific
barriers, such as: climatic conditions leading to a traditional low emphasis on insulation; ageing building
stock, especially in urban centres; lack of well-structured operators of social housing. In this context:
Investing in low-carbon transition in buildings in the Mediterranean area is a necessary condition to build a
more sustainable Europe and enhance economy recovery. Indeed, low-carbon transition in buildings has
been boosting the sector of building rehabilitation, creating new jobs and encouraging new professional
education and training. Last but not least, low-carbon transition in buildings contributes to the adoption of
new energy consumption behaviour patterns and to the improvement of Mediterranean citizens’ living
conditions and comfort.
The ELIH-MED, MARIE and PROFORBIOMED projects represent three examples of how and to what extent
the EU financial support can encourage the low-carbon transition in buildings in the Mediterranean area by
promoting growth and jobs.
Co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) in the framework of the MED Programme,
ELIH-MED, MARIE and PROFORBIOMED bring together close to 60 partners, including regional
authorities, cities, territorial energy agencies, universities and international organisations. After two years of
work, the ELIH-Med and MARIE projects have produced a joint Policy Paper with strategic
recommendations.
According to the request recently raised by the European Parliament4 and aiming to contribute to the
creation of a strategy for the energy efficiency improvement in Mediterranean buildings, the declaration
below delivers the main messages of the ELIH-Med and MARIE Policy Paper, which are also shared by the
PROFORBIOMED project.
It is addressed to the European Institutions, Managing Authorities of European Programmes and to national,
regional and local representatives.

Partners of the ELIH-MED, MARIE and PROFORBIOMED projects:
1. Commit to creating a new model of multi-level governance for the implementation of policies for
energy renovation and renewable energy in buildings. In such a new governance model, the Regions
and Cities will play a key role politically and financially. This new model would be implemented
3. p. III
through the CPMR Intermediterranean Commission and should aim to: coordinate the use of financial
instruments, achieve a better harmonisation of administrative procedures for accessing fund and
encourage public-private alliances for innovative solutions.
2. Commit to adopting regional strategies on energy efficiency and renewable energy in buildings –
which should be included within integrated sustainable urban strategies – and coordinating the
implementation of these strategies, by developing initiatives and creating tools to cooperate in the
Mediterranean area, such as:
− an information system;
− an investment programme including private and public partnership;
− a monitoring system for energy savings;
− an awareness campaign for the capitalisation of a selected group of high performance European
projects – flagship projects;
− an office in charge of the promotion of the most interesting products and services, including
incentives for the use of prefabricated standard elements for house refurbishment.
3. Call on European Institutions to increase the use of Structural and Investment Funds (ESIF) in the
energy renovation of buildings by changing regulation to facilitate the absorption of funds and use of
structural funds by the private sector (e.g. rules on State Aids).
4. Call on the European Commission to enhance specific initiatives in the MED area aiming to:
− support a better coordination of European, national and regional funds for energy efficiency and
renewable energies in buildings;
− develop innovative EU guarantee schemes systems along with legal and financial facilities, in
collaboration with Mediterranean Countries, Regions and Cities;
− encourage life-long training for existing and new professional profiles dealing with the energy
renovation of buildings;
− establish private-public alliances with the objective to adapt, develop, market and disseminate
energy design and planning tools which should support regional and local governments to develop
projects for both new and existing areas;
− support the development of a network of universities, research centres and technical institutions
aiming to assess the implementation and integration of energy efficiency and renewable energy
solutions to improve energy systems in Mediterranean buildings and, above all, in low-income
buildings.
5. Call on the Mediterranean Countries, Regions and Cities to:
− support the implementation of the Energy Efficiency Directive (2012), the Energy Performance of
Buildings Directive (2010) and the Directive on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable
sources (2009) by:
• ensuring a high percentage of the ERDF envelopes allocated to low carbon economy to
energy efficiency in buildings;
• mainstreaming energy renovation measures in the next Mediterranean transnational and
cross border programmes;
• reducing the red tap and facilitating the access for public and private stakeholders to
structural investment funds, in order to enhance energy renovation in buildings and, above
all, in low-income housing.
− promote the industrialisation of processes and construction techniques and the better use of
prefabricated elements to improve the energy efficiency of houses in order to reduce the cost and the
time for the refurbishment;
− support public energy efficiency awareness campaigns and energy-efficient behaviour programs;
− develop interconnected and harmonized intelligent energy management systems.
4. p. IV
6. Call on Managing Authorities of European funding programmes (ERDF, ESF, ENI, HORIZON 2020,
MED, etc.), in the perspective of the next programming period 2014-2020, to:
− give wider visibility and higher investments for the energy renovation of buildings and renewable
energy sources in their Operational Programmes. Strategic lines identified in ELIH-MED and
MARIE Policy Paper, supported by PROFORBIOMED, could be chosen as investment priorities;
− include specific priority axes in the energy renovation of buildings and renewable energy in future
calls for projects;
− foster concrete experimentations related to the energy renovation of buildings and renewable energy
instead of research studies in future calls for projects.
