Session 2Economic growth in the low carbon worldHotel Maestral, Budva, 9-10th October 2015

Final energy consumption in Croatia

in 2050Smart measurment – smart grid –smart energy service: efficiency and quality in use – cost optimized

2050 householdsHousing stock are 50% of new units and existing achieved higher energy performance – heating demand 27 kWh/m2

Pilot projects:

Preparation of design documentation for energy refurbishment of public education buildings – end 2020, 4,5 M Kn available

Energy refurbishment of public education buildings – end 2020, 50 M Kn available

Current programs

• 36 M m2 of non residential buildings

• moslty built before 1987, heat energy demand 220-250 kWh

• Refurbishment goal A+, A and B energy class

• Eligible costs: external envelope, centralized heating system with RES, centralized cooling and ventilation with RES, centralized hot water preparation system with RES, lighting system improvement, water system efficiency, CNUS system, construction of new low energy and nearly zero energy buildings

• Subsidies or no interest loans

• Not active

• Open call for use of RES systems in tourist sector

Measures towards NEZEH

Conclusions•Implementation of all proposed measures will not lead to neZEH status but it will lead to compliance with current building regulation•To achieve neZEH status natural gas has to be replaced with renewable source (wood, pallets) that is not feasible in current location
