ReMED’s 3rd Partner Meeting was held on the 6th and 7th May in Fyli and Athens, Greece – hosted by our partners – the Municipality of Fyli and the National Observatory of Athens (NOA).
The visit started with a trip to the pilot area – Cassia, (Fyli). This was followed by a short presentation by the vice-mayor for civil protection and environment.
Following the introductory visit and presentations, the vice-mayor also gave an overview of dominant projects, along with works at the Municipality and hardships from the recently devastating forest fires.
Positive advances of the new PV power plant and energy community are already serving 70households and some municipality buildings with free green electricity. The aim is to expand this and cover 700 under privileged households in the municipality. This along with new deep underwater
drills work towards achieving energy and water independence.
Fyli mayor Mr Christos Pappous delivered what he promised for his city, among other great projects. After half a day at Fyli and various site visits, work continued indoors at a hotel downtown and concluded the day with a joint dinner on the foothills of Acropolis.
