In the first year of the project, the ENABLE project partners established cooperation with other international initiatives in Kazakhstan that focus on improving the energy efficiency of buildings:
- Kazakhstan-Germany Energy Dialogue ─ the official format of co-operation between the governments of Kazakhstan and Germany in the field of energy efficiency and renewable energy
-
Eastern Partnership and Central Asia "FELICITY II Programme - advising cities and municipalities on financing low-carbon energy development", funded by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Nuclear Safety and Consumer Protection (BMUV) under the International Climate Initiative (IKI).
Three events were jointly prepared and held in Astana:

Next year, the International Initiatives plan to work together on Roadmaps for practical implementation of energy-saving measures in the modernisation of buildings / multi-family residential buildings. The work will involve partner cities of the project ENABLE ─ Almaty, Astana, Petropavlovsk) and Kokshetau, where a pilot project on complex energy modernisation of residential buildings is being implemented (see button "Round Table", right column).
The partners of the three initiatives will not only jointly benefit from savings in costs and human resources and improve project efficiency, but the goal of these projects and programmes, the ‘development of energy efficiency policy in buildings in Kazakhstan’, will also be achieved with better results.
