European Energy Efficiency Financing Coalition moves from launch to action

Euracsis is supporting work linked to the European Energy Efficiency Financing Coalition, an initiative of the European Commission aimed at improving access to finance for energy efficiency projects across Europe.

Through PRACSIS’s role in the consortium led by Viegand Maagøe, alongside VM Europe, COWI and adelphi consult, the assignment brings together event coordination, communication support and practical delivery for activities connected to the Coalition.

Recent events have included the Coalition’s Second General Assembly and the Clean Energy Transition Investment Forum 2026, held in Brussels in May. These meetings brought together public authorities, financial institutions, businesses and energy stakeholders to exchange on practical ways to mobilise investment in energy efficiency.

For Euracsis, the project reflects the kind of European assignment the network is built to support: centrally coordinated, but connected to national contexts, local stakeholders and practical delivery needs across Europe.

The work strengthens Euracsis’s experience in EU energy and sustainability projects, and confirms the value of a trusted network able to support events, communications and stakeholder engagement across different countries.

Euracsis welcomes Total Image as Romanian partner

Based in Bucharest, Total Image brings experience in event support, live streaming, video, photography and corporate visual communication. The agency works with businesses and organisations to develop clear visual content and to support events, campaigns and other communication activities.

For Euracsis, the new partnership strengthens the network’s presence in Romania and adds a reliable local partner for projects requiring on-the-ground coordination, local knowledge, Romanian-language support and practical event delivery.

We look forward to working with Total Image on future European projects and to sharing experience across the network.

Euracsis partners ready to support future EU energy efficiency events

A new framework contract awarded by DG Energy will establish the European Energy Efficiency Financing Coalition, an initiative to strengthen private financing for energy efficiency in line with the EU Green Deal and Fit for 55 objectives.

Pracsis is pleased to be part of the winning consortium — led by Viegand Maagøe, VM Europe, COWI, and adelphi consult — and will contribute as an implementing partner. The contract foresees dialogue with public authorities and financial institutions, as well as events in different EU Member States to showcase solutions and exchange good practices.

While the exact scope of activities is still taking shape, such events may draw on the support of Euracsis agencies at national level, helping with logistics, translation, and local outreach. Building on past experiences such as the SEI Forums and the EIB ELENA Roadshows, Euracsis stands ready to contribute wherever its partners’ local expertise can add value.

Strengthening sustainability practices together

Since Pracsis obtained ISO 20121 certification for sustainable event management, we have been sharing our experience with Euracsis partners to help raise awareness of what the standard means in practice.

A series of training seminars has been organised across the network, focusing on how sustainability principles can be integrated into event planning and delivery. Topics have ranged from waste reduction and responsible sourcing to accessibility and inclusivity.

The aim is not to impose a rigid model, but to support partners in aligning with a common framework and to encourage practical steps that make a difference. By working together on these issues, Euracsis partners are building stronger habits that will benefit future projects and the clients we serve.

Euracsis partners meet in Brussels

In June 2024, Euracsis partners from across Europe gathered in Brussels for a three-day meeting. While it was not possible for every agency to attend, the reunion brought together a strong group of colleagues to look back on past collaborations and exchange ideas for the future.

The programme combined working sessions with visits to EU institutions. Partners presented their agencies, shared lessons learned from joint projects, and discussed opportunities for new ones. The group also visited the European Committee of the Regions and the European Parliament, and enjoyed a welcome at the PRACSIS office.

Beyond the formal agenda, dinners and informal conversations gave space to reconnect on a personal level—something that is not always easy to arrange across so many countries and schedules.

The meeting closed with reflections on sustainability, GDPR and contract updates, and a keynote on energy transition. It was a reminder of the value of bringing people together in person to maintain and strengthen the Euracsis network.
