We would like to inform you that the Ministry of Energy, Commerce and Industry has developed a Digital One Stop Shop service for Renewable Energy Sources for the Energy Upgrade of Buildings.
This digital service/platform is currently operating on a pilot basis and aims to support property owners, professionals, and interested stakeholders by providing:
• Centralised, reliable, and up-to-date information on technical measures, technologies, and best practices
• Access to available financing tools and grant schemes
• Guidance on the proper implementation of energy upgrade interventions
• Enhanced transparency and accessibility to relevant procedures and services
• The ability to design a comprehensive building energy upgrade programme, including a renovation roadmap (step-by-step deep renovation)
The Energy Service invites interested parties to visit the platform, make use of it within the framework of its pilot operation, and submit their comments and suggestions, which are expected to contribute substantially to its final configuration and improvement.
Comments and observations should be submitted by 20/02/2026 to the following email address: kpigiotis@meci.gov.cy.
The widespread use of chemical substances in commercial, industrial, and consumer applications makes it necessary to ensure proper awareness and oversight of their distribution, as certain substances may be misused, in violation of legislation, for the manufacture of improvised explosive devices.
Within the framework of the Information Campaign for Traders on the Control of Explosive Precursors, the Ministry of Energy, Commerce and Industry has issued an information leaflet outlining the restrictions on the placing on the market, supply, and use of specific chemical substances, in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2019/1148, with the aim of preventing their illegal use.
