Warmer winters in Moldova

Author: Cecilia Calatrava

Across Moldova, temperatures can stay below freezing for much of the winter. In these conditions, people like Suzanna struggle to keep warm and pay their energy bills.

"If you don't have heating, your house literally freezes. But it's very expensive so people can't afford to heat their houses," says Suzanna, a mother of three who lives in Balti.

Nearly 40,000 residents in Balti will now benefit from a more efficient distribution network, consumption-based billing, and affordable hot water supply.

This EBRD Green Cities project is supported by Sweden, the E5P Fund, the Green Climate Fund and the Sustainable Infrastructure Fund.
