The SHEEP project aims at achieving some measurable objectives related to the market of efficient household EuP and to the qualification of its operators.

In particular the project aims at:

  • strengthening schools' capability to support the Ecodesign and Energy labelling Directives and other related Directives and Regulations (e.g. the Ecolabel Regulation n. 1980/2000);

  • increasing the market share of the efficient EuP;
  • sharing proposals for policy makers;
  • guaranteeing the wide dissemination of the best practice and its adoption during the project lifetime.


Results - A Schools' panel for High Energy Efficiency Products – SHEEP

The project will allow increasing the knowledge and skills (monitored) of teachers (at least 250) of the 8 schools partners and of 30 other schools.

SHEEP will allow an increase in the knowledge and the skills (monitored) of at least 500 sellers, 150 installers, 100 manufacturers, 100 representatives of the Chambers of Commerce and Associations, 15 000 pupils.

The training programmes and contents for the market actors, for the teachers and pupils will be the contents of the project work-packages deliverables.

The project promoters expect the market to share of the efficient EuP Increase of at least 5% each year (more than 10% after the 2 years of the campaign).

In order to guarantee the future of the SHEEP project, agreements with 3 EU networks are expected, information is provided to the target groups at national level (e.g. 100 national, regional and provincial associations; 100 national, regional and provincial chambers of commerce, agencies; 20 stores chains, etc) and to the target group of at least 10 EU countries (50 schools, 100 Chambers of commerce and associations, 50 agencies; 10 store chains).

The SHEEP pamphlet, the project brochure and an exploitation plan will be produced, new schools involved in the training activities for teachers, education/environment organisations and companies Ministries of all EU countries will receive the dissemination documents and recommendations.

2 International workshops and 2 national events for each Country are foreseen. The project internet site will be launched and maintained. Leaflets will be produced to support the sales personnel and installers’ sensitisation activity toward consumers and the communication of schools toward families.
