News about «Mechanism for Support of Energy Efficiency Measures for Public Buildings»!
As of the beginning of June 2020, we would like to inform you that:

1. Energy audit of three buildings of "City Clinical Hospital №1" of Ivano-Frankivsk City Council was performed.
2. Energy audit of six buildings of Vuhledar City Council was performed.
3. Energy audit of twelve buildings of Kolomyia City Council was performed.
4. Energy audit of seven buildings of the Konstantinovka City Council have been performed: four kindergartens, two educational institutions and the Palace of Culture and Leisure.

As these buildings have a low level of energy efficiency, energy auditors provided recommendations for improving energy efficiency, including:

⚡️ Adjustment of window fittings and replacement of seals
⚡️ Insulation of external walls and plinth of the building
⚡️ Replacement of translucent structures
⚡️ Replacement of external doors
⚡️ Insulation of roof structures
⚡️ Modernization of the ventilation system
⚡️ Installation of an individual heating point
⚡️ Hydraulic balancing of heating system risers
⚡️ Modernization of the lighting system
⚡️ Implementation of a comprehensive reconstruction of the heating system
⚡️ Installation of solar collectors for the needs of hot water etc.

Each of the recommendations provides a calculation of investments, annual expenditures, net savings and economic life of the results of these projects.
