ENERGY MANAGEMENT IN SAVINJSKA, ŠALEŠKA AND KOROŠKA REGION Boštjan KRAJNC Energy Agency KSSENA Bratislava 20 th of June, 2011

Solving of energy problems Reducing the impact of Climate Changes: • Rational use of energy • Renewable energy sources • Energy management

Municipality Commitment of municipality: To create adequate administrative structures in municipalities:

Definition of Energy goals • Reduction of costs and energy use in public sector • Reduction of green-house-gas (GHG) emissions • Development and implementation of innovative products and services • Implementation of pilot or demonstrative projects • Gain of non-refundable funds • Stimulate the private and industrial sector to increase RES and RUE • Encouragements for inflow of capital for investment projects • Rise of energy culture of general and expert public • Rise the awareness on energy issue

Development of Energy Management Adequate administrative structures in municipality: • Energy manager (internal or external expert organization; Energy manager has specific hierarchic position) • Direct link with decision makers: Mayor, Head of Department of Works and Services, Head of Mayor‘s office, etc; • Cooperation with Department of Economy and Finance (possibilities of investments, budget, etc);

The role of the energy manager Role of the energy manager – full time: • • Analyses of energy supply, consumption and costs (Secure, stabile and quality of energy supply); Preparation of RES and RUE measures (Energy Action plan – Energy concept); Communication between decision makers and maintainers, accouters, etc; Energy audits Measurements of the Environmental impacts; To create long-term strategy on energy management; Monitoring - Energy bookkeeping Education, motivate and raise the awareness of all employees;

Sharing of local/regional energy agency with other cities Local or regional Energy Agency: - Many similar action; - Sharing of costs; - Transfer of know – how between municipalities; - Exchange of experiences

Financial mechanisms to facilitate energy management in public sector - Own resources (budget) Private – public partnership Credit (Commercial banks, Eko sklad, etc) ESCO model – (Energy Performance Contracting EPC) problem of Municipalities‘ volume of borrowing National and EU founds (ELENA, IEE, IPA, Objective 3, Cohesion founds, etc)

Motivation of employees on energy issue • • • Seminars, workshops; Energy certificate; Energy bookkeeping; Energy stickers Brochures, leaflets, etc

Energy Strategy Municipality with no strategy: - Action plan not-created or created but weak execution - No specific plans (in general only – like more implementation of RES); - No sequence of action (reconstruction of heating system before of general adaptation); - No responsible person or department for measures of RES and RUE - The lack of founding the projects Municipality with strategy : - Energy Programs are sustainable and efficient: public lightening, public buildings and public transport; - Many weak points identified during the implementation; - Many actions done to reduce energy consumption; - Many pilot projects (PV street lights; CHP in public buildings, PV power plant in public buildings, etc)

Energy strategy Benchmarking analyses of 3 municipalities with different strategies

ENERGY BOOKKEEPING Energy Act - All public buildings with over 500 m 2 of netto heat surface MAIN FUNCTIONS: - mangers recognize their consumption; invoice management (advanced energy bookkeeping), - energy and financial data management, - analysis, - financial and energy planning, - energy and financial reports, - financial and energetic planning for energy efficient measures, - monitoring, - all your buildings connected in one comprehensive energyinformational system.

Energy certification - Comparison of CO 2 emissions between 2008 and 2010

Energy certification Total energy savings -1, 03 %
