JatroMed”, a demonstration project supported by the EU which uses the plant Jatropha curcas as a means to produce renewable and sustainable energy in the Mediterranean region, has just published a newsletter about its activities in 2015.

With a total budget of EUR 1.82 million, the project is being co-funded (64%) by the EU over a period of 4 years.
 
The Jatropha curcas plant has notable energy potential and could be used for the production of renewable energy through joint initiatives in Egypt, Morocco, and Algeria.
