Operational Manual

The Operational Manual of the Romanian Energy Efficiency Fund (OM) describes the principles governing the Romanian Energy Efficiency Fund (REEF). The Operational Manual establishes the directions of intervention and action for all key factors involved in the management of the Fund, in the implementation of subsequent measures and monitoring of the results obtained.

The Operational Manual aims to understand the principles and practices used by all stakeholders and also aims to create and strengthen a partnership. The content of the OM is made in correlation with the provisions of the REEF Organization and Functioning Regulation, which establishes the competencies, duties and responsibilities of the REEF management bodies as well as of the affiliated personnel.

The content of the Operation Manual – including the annexes – cannot be amended or corrected without the explicit consultation and approval of the Board of Directors of the Romanian Energy Efficiency Fund.

Information on the initiation, implementation and completion, on June 30th, 2008, of the ”GEF/ IBRD Energy Efficiency Project” based on which the Romanian Energy Efficiency Fund was established and operates can be found in the official documents published on the GEF website.
