West Estonia reserva de la biosfera Archipiélago.
Saaremaa – literalmente, Tierra de las Islas – es la segunda isla más grande del Mar Báltico con una superficie de 2668 km². Al mismo tiempo Saaremaa es la isla más grande de la República de Estonia.

- to go beyond the objectives set by the EU for 2020, reducing the CO2 emissions in their respective territories by at least 20%;
- to submit an Islands Sustainable Energy Action Plan including a Baseline Emission Inventory which outlines how the objectives will be reached.
The results of the ISEAP (island Sustainable Energy Action Plan) show that the most efficient means for reduction of overall CO2 emissions is installation of wind turbines for the production of energy into the grid. According to the action plan the overall expected renewable energy increase for the year 2020 (compared to the baseline year 2005) in the context of the Paris Climate Conference 93062 MWh, from which installation of new wind turbines gives 72500 MWh.
Photo Gallery 2020 in the context of the Paris Climate Conference 75 840 tCO2, from which the installation of wind turbines gives 33350 tCO2. The tertiary sector holds the biggest potential for energy savings. CO2 reductions of 15419 tCO2 will be achieved by reducing energy use by as much as 40 195 MWh in the year 2020. Por supuesto, to achieve the target of reducing CO2 emission by at least 20% all actions in all sectors are needed. The total energy saving of all ISEAP activities is 93420 MWh.
