Duration: December 2005 – February 2007

Project aims at building of national capacity in the area of resources efficiency in close cooperation with KNCPC (Kenya National Cleaner Production Center) and SME's (Small and Medium Enterprises) in Kenya. Focus area is efficient resources usage (energy and material) in Kenya with emphasis on potential of renewable resources, environment and cost benefit. By the end of project a group of trained consultants and trainers from Kenya will be able to provide resources efficiency assessment. National case studies in 4 participating SME's will be developed also with the aim to enhance their viability and competitiveness on the market. Reduction of pollution into air, water, soil and energy and material savings is important part of project that leads to the protection of environment.

Set of theoretical trainings and hand-on experiences from pilot companies are tools how to achieve project results. Project manager in Slovakia and local project manager in Kenya manage project. Slovak and Kenyan trained consultants will participate in the project.

Since the project has started, the contracts to clarify project work were signed between project partners – SCPC and KNCPC. The inception phase of the project started up and continued by the first project mission held in Kenya in March 2006. During the mission, project management and 4 participating companies were identified and an awareness seminar, introductory visit of participating companies and top management training were organized.

Second mission was realized in June 2006. Its goal was to realise a training of implementation team and consultants with focus on energy efficiency and renewable resources. Also, participating companies were more involved in project implementation with the target on resources efficiency operations.

The third mission was in November 2006. It was about outputs from energy audits and cleaner production assessment with focus on proposed solution options and recommendations on energy and material savings.

Last mission run in February 2007 and it was devoted to dissemination project results and together with a final report it will closed REAK project in March 2007.

• Dohovor o zmene klímy (UNFCC)
• Dohovor o biologickej diverzite (UNCBD)
• Dohovor o boji proti dezertifikácii (UNCCD)

pričom koordináciu pracovnej skupiny pre zmenu klímy zabezpečoval pracovník SCPC. Výstupy z projektu, ktorý skončil v roku 2004 môžete nájsť na MŽP SR alebo v SCPC, s.r.o.

Cleaner Production - Energy Efficiency (CPEE)

The objective of this project was to reduce emission of greenhouse gases by identifying and implementing Energy Efficiency (EE) improvements as an integral part of Cleaner Production - Environmental Management System (CP-EMS) audits in industrial enterprises six countries.  The project integrated energy efficiency concepts into CP-EMS approaches, and train/develop CP-EMS professionals working in the existing UNEP/UNIDO network of National Cleaner Production Centres (NCPCs).  This  allowed  the Centres to include, on an ongoing basis, energy efficiency activities as a comprehensive part of their core programmes, which are primarily aimed at small and medium enterprises (SMEs).

PREPARE

PREPARE je nezávislá sieť európskych odborníkov v oblasti čistejšej produkcie a trvalo udržateľného rozvoja, ktorá bola založená v roku 1991 pod záštitou medzinárodnej siete EUREKA (A Europe-wide Network for Industrial Research & Development) v spolupráci s environmentálnou agentúrou EuroEnviron.

Slovensko, prostredníctvom MŽP SR, ktoré delegovalo výkonom Sekretariátu PREPARE (Preventive Environmental Protection Approaches in Europe / Prístupy k preventívnej ochrane ŽP v Európe) SCPC, s.r.o. pre obdobie 2002 - 2003, bolo jednou z prvých nečlenských krajín, ktoré boli k členstvu a k spolupráci prizvané v roku 1997. Bolo to aj vďaka práci a menu SCPC, ktoré si na medzinárodnom poli vytvorilo v oblasti ochrany životného prostredia. Účasť a práca v tejto skupine nielen priniesla rozšírené medzinárodné kontakty v rámci Európy, ale aj niektoré konkrétne projekty, napr. projekt pre Environmentálne manažérske účtovníctvo UN DESA (United Nation Department of Economic and Social Affairs / Divízia OSN pre hospodárstvo a sociálne záležitosti), aj spoločný projekt s OSN / Division for Sustainable Development (Divízia pre trvalo udržateľný rozvoj), ktorého cieľom bolo vytvorenie metodiky pre tvorbu národných stratégií pre čistejšie technológie. Tieto projekty pomohli zviditeľniť aktivity Slovenska v oblasti čistejšej produkcie a implementácie preventívnych stratégií v ochrane životného prostredia. PREPARE v SR prinesie nielen ďalšie pozitívne zviditeľnenie Slovenska v oblasti preventívnych stratégií v ochrane životného prostredia v Európe, ale aj popularizáciu inovačných aktivít v medzinárodnom rozsahu.
