Stakeholders

 Ministry of Environment and Energy  Implementation of standards, development of a suitable legislative framework  WEEE Forum – WEEELabex  Information provision, dissemination of the project’s results  Local Authorities Operation of WEEE sorting facilities, raising awareness  Environmental NGOs  Raising awareness campaigns, dissemination of the project’s results  Stakeholders in the field of “preparation for reuse” of the WEEE and EEE repair  Implementation of standards, feedback  Consumers’ unions Information on prevention, preparation for reuse

Expected results

 The development and operation of two WEEE sorting facilities, the first of their kind in Greece, one in the Greater Athens Area and one in Thessaloniki  The pilot operation of the abovementioned sorting facilities with category 4 WEEE.  The development of an EU‐wide applicable methodology and tools for measuring WEEE reuse and preparation for reuse, that could assist Member States in national reporting and the EU in setting relevant compulsory standards in future legislation  The accurate mapping of the baseline situation on WEEE reuse and preparation for reuse in Greece, which is currently mainly based on informal, small‐scale private entrepreneurial initiatives  A set of specifications, protocols, technical requirements and Guides based on Best Available Techniques (BAT) for the entire “preparation for reuse” cycle.  The development of tools to promote WEEE prevention at the consumer level, through increasing awareness and

  • pportunities for reliable repair;

 Defined parameters to characterize the environmental, economic and social impact of the process of preparing selected EEE streams for re‐use, through the implementation of LCA and social LCA methodologies and tools;  Eventual improved implementation of the new WEEE Directive and the national legislation.

Action Β.1: Design and develop assessment tools and methodologies

For the reliable and comparable measurement of WEEE reuse & preparation for reuse at the EU‐level

  • Questionnaires, meetings, visits

Action Β.2: Development of a Consultation Forum

with structured regular working meetings, including all relevant stakeholders in Greece, to promote and monitor WEEE prevention & preparation for reuse Aims:

  • Participation of at least 20 stakeholders
  • 12 meetings
slide-12
SLIDE 12

Action Β.3: Mapping WEEE

Mapping WEEE reuse & preparation for reuse practices and initiatives in Greece, using the methodologies developed in B1, to enable reliable assessment of the baseline situation

Action Β.4: Develop specifications & technical requirements based on Best Available Techniques

For the entire “preparation for reuse” cycle, to be adopted by the relevant regulatory body in Greece (HRA), to enable smooth facilities permitting and assure quality of reused EEE

Action Β.5: Design, develop & operate two WEEE sorting centres

  • In Athens & Thessaloniki, in cooperation with local authorities.
  • The sorting centres will be integrated with existing preparation for reuse activities,

which will be further supported and integrated within the ECYCLE WEEE management organisation activities

Action Β.6: Promote & support of the WEEE prevention culture in Greece

Through the: i) design & development of a Collaborative web‐based Platform for EEE donation and exchange in the context of the action “DO NOT THROUGH, DONATE” of the proposed National Waste Prevention Plan, and ii) organisation of six “Repair Events”
