INOGATE Programme
Meeting of Covenant of Mayors in Tbilisi
The Covenant of Majors will gather cities from all Eastern Europe.
A conference of the Covenant of Mayors is being held in Tbilisi, Georgia, on 21-22 October, the first to be organised by the European Commission in an Eastern Partnership country, reflecting the priority given to the initiative in the field of energy under the Eastern Partnership.
The Covenant of Mayors initiative was launched in 2008, as a priority for action at local and regional level within the EU Energy Efficiency Action Plan. It consists of the formal commitment by City Councils to go beyond the EU objective of 20% reduction of CO2 emissions through energy efficiency and renewable energy actions.
