The KEFF for the Southern Upper Rhine region is supported by a broad regional consensus among those involved in the energy transition under the umbrella of climate partners Upper Rhine. The KEFF project establishes a much-needed piloting function between companies from industry and commerce as well as energy efficiency consultants in the region. The aim of the project is to increase energy efficiency, especially in small and medium-sized enterprises, by raising awareness among business decision-makers about the benefits of potential energy and cost savings. The KEFF should always have the entrepreneurial perspective in mind and support the economic growth of the companies through meaningful impulses.
