Mazowiecka Agencja Energetyczna Sp. z o.o.
Mazovia Energy Agency (MAE) was established in March 2009 by Mazowieckie Voievodship (Mazovia self-government) to set up the energy policy in the region and assist public and private institutions in energy planning. The Agency promotes renewable energy and energy efficiency focusing on: renewable energy for small scale technologies (e.g. solar thermal/ PV, bioenergy); energy efficiency in buildings; energy planning, energy monitoring and systematic collection of relevant regional energy data. Part of its activities is also capacity building - training and networking with Polish and foreign partners.
MAE has a balanced structure of stakeholders; its work programme fulfils a public mission. The Agency is recognized regionally, nationally and at EU level, and it has gained wide public approval in Mazovia. In May 2011, MAE established Mazovia Energy Cluster to stimulate regional and local sustainable development by supporting concrete initiatives and projects. They are to create preconditions that will guarantee both environmental protection and socio-economical cohesion. MAE is also a supporting institution in acquisition of resources from the EU for the region as well as for actions improving energy security and development of new technologies. The Agency advices the Mazovia managing authority in implementation of regional operational programme (ERDF), helping to prepare the selecting criteria for regional calls for proposals, manages JESSICA loan and guarantee fund for energy projects. MAE also has much experience in the implementation of EU funded projects – FP7, IEE (Intelligent Energy for Europe), CENTRAL EUROPE and ERDF (Operational Programmes on a regional level) – acting both as a leader and project partner.
