Energy efficiency in municipal buildings
Reduction of annual primary energy consumption and GHG emissions is facilitated by increasing energy efficiency of local government buildings and infrastructure. The projects ensure implementation of the most effective GHG emission reduction measures in two support directions – energy efficency in municipal public buildings and technological processes of public services provided by municipalities. The aid should result in a financial return on investment and a reduction in energy costs for final energy consumers. Projects are being implemented and planned within the framework of:
1) the 2014-2020 EU funds planning period Operational Programme “Growth and Employment”, where 35,2 million euros are provided by additional support measures for the Covid-19 crisis through a medium-term Coronavirus Response Investment Initiative called REACT-EU and, as of August 9, 2022, 62 projects have been approved with the expected annual savings of primary energy of at least 1,1 GWh and GHG reduction of at least 2 204 tons of CO2 equivalent;
2) Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) for Latvia where 29,3 million euros includes investments for improving municipal buildings and infrastructure by promoting the transition to renewable energy technologies and improving energy efficiency. The investment measure will support projects with a planned reduction of primary energy by at least 30 %. As a result of the project, a reduction of primary energy consumption in municipal buildings and infrastructure by 4,544,563 kWh/year is planned. The implementation of projects under the investment is planned to commence in 2023.
