Development of a variant implementation concept for a Municipal Energy Agency in the City of Warsaw, Poland, including analysis of the potential and feasibility of organizing such a unit, its recommended organizational models and legal form, as well as an implementation scenario with an estimation of the resources needed

Objectives: The request seeks the development of a variant implementation concept for a Municipal Energy Agency in Warsaw, Poland. This involves analyzing the feasibility and potential organization of the agency, recommending its organizational models and legal form, and outlining an implementation scenario. The primary aim is to enhance the city's ability to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the energy and buildings sector, responsible for over 70% of emissions, by establishing a centralized unit that will coordinate energy efficiency programs and renewable energy initiatives. The agency is expected to stimulate broader city, business, and resident engagement in the energy transition, ultimately contributing to Warsaw's climate neutrality goals facilitated by the Climate City Contract. This initiative will initially focus on testing in select Warsaw districts before scaling city-wide and potentially to other cities in Poland and Europe.
