Basisinfrastruktur: Energieeffizienz und erneuerbare Energien

The direct beneficiaries are carefully selected public institutions and private households located in 9 municipalities of the Swietokrzyskie region. They will not only benefit from reduced emissions and better air quality, but also from a higher disposable income as less conventional fuel needs to be purchased. Indirect beneficiaries are the approximately 140'000 inhabitants of the 9 municipalities as well as visitors due to reduced emission and better air quality.

The project's overall objective is to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases by installing solar collectors providing energy for hot water purposes on 23 public buildings and around 4'000 private households. Furthermore, a photovoltaic system for the lighting of a public park will be installed to serve as a demonstration object. The project contributes to the implementation of the Polish government's energy policy (particularly with regard to increasing the share of renewable energy in the national energy balance and reducing emissions).

The goal of the project is to improve health and living conditions for the whole population in the covered region and to improve environmental conditions, particularly with regard to air quality, in the covered region.

• Purchase and installation of complete solar systems for public buildings for domestic hot water production.
• Purchase and installation of complete solar systems for residential buildings for domestic hot water production.
• Purchase and installation of a photovoltaic system as a demonstration object.
• Awareness raising and training courses to ensure that the new renewable energy systems are used and maintained properly and that accompanying energy saving measures are taken.
  

• Increased share of renewable energy from solar collectors
• Reduction of conventional fuel use
• Substantial reduction of CO, CO2, SO2, NOx and dust emissions.
