SKAT Consulting Annual Report 2024: Better Public Services and Sustainable Solutions for Communities
Fundația Centrul Moldo-Elvețian pentru Cooperare SKAT is part of SKAT Consulting – a leading Swiss company specialized in international cooperation and the development of essential public services. With a clear mission to contribute to better living conditions and a healthy environment for all, SKAT supports governments, the private sector, and civil society around the world in the fields of water, construction, energy, and governance.
The SKAT Consulting Annual Report for 2024 has been published, reflecting the impact of projects implemented globally – from Ukraine and the Balkans to Africa and Asia. One of the key highlights is the work in the Republic of Moldova, through the “MĂ IMPLIC – Civic Engagement in Local Governance” project, supported by the Government of Switzerland.
MĂ IMPLIC – Change through Engagement
In 2024, the MĂ IMPLIC project entered its second phase, working with 56 partner municipalities in Moldova to improve the quality of public services for more than 106,000 citizens. Given the challenges inherited from a centralized system and the often fragmented political climate, the project helps strengthen the capacity of local authorities and encourages citizen participation in local governance.
“What unites us is the clear desire to improve life in our communities – through better services, whether it’s waste management, public lighting, or water supply.” — Anatol Bucatca, Public Services Manager, MĂ IMPLIC Project
Energy Efficiency for a Sustainable Future
In 2024, the EnEff – Energy Efficiency component continued to generate impact in rural communities across Moldova. 400 private homes were renovated, each assessed individually to identify the most effective energy-saving measures – resulting in over 30% energy savings per household.
Public buildings were also modernized, and photovoltaic systems were installed, contributing to more sustainable energy consumption and reducing dependence on fossil fuels. The lessons learned were widely shared with the public through the national campaign “Warm in Winter, Cool in Summer”, carried out in partnership with the National Centre for Sustainable Energy (CNED), through guides, workshops, and video materials promoting simple and effective solutions for more comfortable and energy-efficient homes.
