SECCA -
European Union Support to Sustainable Energy Connectivity in Central Asia (SECCA) Project -
Latvia, STANTEC

As part of the new #EU #SECCA project - European Union Support to Sustainable Energy Connectivity in Central Asia (SECCA) Project, in November 2023 we followed up on the previous cooperation on the #EU #WECOOP #Stantec project.

Together with international study groups from Central Asia countries, I participated in a three-week filming session in two countries - in Georgia and in Latvia. In Georgia and Latvia, I have created videos and photographs for the SECCA project that document these study tours.

In Latvia we visited, for example:

• Riga Technical University - Science and Innovation center & Faculty of Electrical and Environmental Engineering,

• University of Children and Youth, Riga 

• University for Future Engineers, Riga

• Curiosity center Futurimo Riga,

• Ogre Central Library

• Ogre State Gymnasium,

• GETLINI EKO

• or Dzintaru Concert Hall.

“The mission of the SECCA Project is to promote a more sustainable energy mix in the Central Asia region in line with EU best practices. Energy plays a critical role in solving climate change challenges. Sustainable energy is one of the key solutions to tackle climate change. 

Pursuant to the Green Deal, the European Union (EU) Strategy on Central Asia, and the Global Gateway Team Europe Initiative on Water, Energy and Climate Change in Central Asia the EU is committed to support the countries of Central Asia (CA) in their current energy transition efforts by building upon the region’s potential in solar, wind and hydroelectric energy and capability for improving energy efficiency."
