IRRI is currently preparing for the final SMALLEST project partner meeting which will be held at the end of March 2012 in Aviemore, Scotland. The meeting will be followed by the first in a series of events focused on developing renewable energy policy across the Northern Periphery of Europe.
The road show series kicks off at the Scottish Holyrood parliament, in Edinburgh at the end of March 2012, followed by events in Eastern Iceland, Northern Ireland and Northern Sweden.
In April a two day event is planned in northern Sweden. The event will contain presentations, workshops, participatory events and site visits and has been organised through collaboration between North Karelia University of Applied Sciences in Finland and the Municipality of Norsjö in Sweden.
In Northern Ireland, Action Renewables and the Ulster Business School at the University of Ulster are teaming up to hold an event at Parliament Buildings, Stormont, Belfast, on Tuesday 8 May, 2012. Members of the Enterprise Trade and Investment Committee of the Northern Ireland Assembly, who are responsible for renewable energy issues in Northern Ireland will be presenting at the event, amongst others.
The SMALLEST partners are looking forward to the road show series and hope that these events will assist in developing community renewable energy across the Northern Periphery region beyond 2012.
The SMALLEST project was set up to make renewable energy more accessible to the smallest communicates in the most isolated areas of Northern Europe. To find out more about SMALLEST, please visit: http://www.smallestnpp.eu/.
