Description

The project is needed as the buildings are using outdated technology which is not meeting current energy requirements. The objective of the project is to improve the energy efficiency of five buildings and applying renewable energy sources in the form of solar collectors in four buildings and photovoltaics in one building. The project will result in reducing the demand for energy by 63%. Before the modernization, the indicator for the energy demand was 418.03 kWh/m2, and after the modernization it is 156.48 kWh/m2. In total, it will bring a reduction 1 030 222 kWh of energy per year, which means reduction of CO2 emissions by 552.16 Mg per year. This is a decrease of approximately 54%. The project will use and install tested and applied solutions, with high energy efficiency. The buildings are used for social and health functions. The main benefactors from the project, in addition to the environmental gains, are residents of the districts where the buildings are located, and those using the buildings.
