ERR - The Cabinet signed an agreement with the Mitsubishi Corporation today for cooperation on projects in Estonia to decrease pollution and minimize energy consumption.

Possible areas of interest include energy efficient buildings, renewable energy production, environmentally friendly transport, and improving island communities' access to energy resources.
