More homeowners in Kosovo will be able to invest in domestic energy efficiency improvements as a consequence of a new €5 million credit line the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) is extending to Raiffeisen Bank Kosovo. The financing is part of a larger €135 million Green Economy Financing Facility (GEFF) programme for the Western Balkans, which supports energy-efficient solutions to build a greener and sustainable economy. To date, more than 8,000 households in the Western Balkans have improved their energy efficiency through the GEFF programme, with investments in projects that contributed to a reduction of nearly than 12,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year, equivalent to removing 7,270 cars from the street.
