SF Energy Invest is a European project supported by “Intelligent Energy Europe” that aims to trigger investments in sustainable energy by using the Structural and Cohesion Funds (SF) of the European Union, within the final phase of the programming period 2007‐2013. SF Energy Invest also helps to improve the political and practical framework conditions for sustainable energy investments in the upcoming programming period 2014‐2020.

More specifically the project intends to:

organize mobilization campaigns to promote Structural and Cohesion Funds for sustainable energy, including Energy Investment Days (EIDs), round tables, panels and study trips.
enable project developers to apply for Structural and Cohesion Funds, by producing a project application manual and by preparing and initiation 5 pilot projects in 5 pilot regions.
promote the success stories of already realized “good practice” sustainable energy projects co-fnanced through the Structural and Cohesion Funds.
develop practical policy recommendations for increasing the importance of sustainable energy in the upcoming programming period 2014‐2020.
assess practical framework and financing opportunities for Structural and Cohesion Funds investments by analyzing the Operational Programmes link to Structural and Cohesion Funds & Energy in each of the campaigning regions.
define a sustainability assessment matrix link to Structural and Cohesion Funds & Energy for the evaluation of sustainable energy project, using a pool of existing criteria.

The project is active in 12 European countries : Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Germany,Hungary, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, United Kingdom. The planned completion date for the project is 31/12/2012.
