The event was organized by the State Agency on Energy Efficiency and Energy Saving of Ukraine together with the Ebert Foundation in Ukraine and with the support of the Sumy Regional State Administration.   <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What is energy service and what benefits does it provide to public institutions?<\/li>\n<li>How is state legislative and organizational support for ESCOs implemented?<\/li>\n<li>Is it possible to apply ESCOs to the housing stock?<\/li>\n<li>What are the parallel ways to improve energy efficiency?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All these and many other questions were answered by representatives of the State Agency on Energy Efficiency and Energy Saving of Ukraine, energy service experts and heads of leading ESCO companies in Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>The State Agency on Energy Efficiency and Energy Saving has been actively involved in the implementation of energy services for several years. Its most important contribution is legislative initiatives that facilitate the use of this mechanism and make it surprisingly effective in many areas. <strong>Oleksiy Korchmit<\/strong>, Advisor to the Chairman of the State Agency on Energy Efficiency and Energy Saving of Ukraine, expert of the Municipal Energy NGO, familiarized the audience with the legal framework of the ESCO mechanism and its opportunities for budget managers and businesses.  <\/p>\n<p>ESCOs have been used in the country for a long time with excellent results to improve the energy efficiency of various types of buildings, both public and residential. <strong>Oleksiy Korchmit<\/strong> provided an overview of the use of ESCOs since 2016, outlining the realities and prospects of the current 2019, and also spoke about the features of new models of its use: <strong>&#8220;in-depth partnership&#8221;<\/strong> and <strong>&#8220;ESCO-Energy Management&#8221;.<\/strong>His words were supported by representatives of leading ESCO companies. They gave examples of successful ESCO projects that have been implemented in different parts of the country for several years. The figures for the excess of actual energy savings over the expected ones and the prospects for investment in 2019 were announced.  <\/p>\n<p>The seminar also reflected other methods of improving energy efficiency used in the country in parallel with energy service. <strong>Roman Palagusynets<\/strong>, a representative of the State Agency on Energy Efficiency and Energy Saving, paid attention to the state program of <strong>&#8220;warm loans&#8221;,<\/strong> the amount of its financing in 2019 and subsequent years, and effective incentives to increase demand for housing insulation. Representatives of the regional state administration and other local organizations spoke about the existing practice of co-financing &#8220;warm loans&#8221;, the local co-financing program and the economic effect of the synergy of state and local support for insulation.  <\/p>\n<p>The seminar in Sumy Oblast expands the geography of implementation of the most effective mechanism for reducing energy consumption and opens up opportunities for its application in both urban and rural areas. The <strong>Krasnopilska rural<\/strong>community and the <strong>Trostianets<\/strong> city community will be the first to start improving the energy efficiency of public buildings, improving the conditions for people to stay in them and reducing energy costs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ukraine is continuing an awareness-raising campaign on the introduction of energy services in amalgamated territorial communities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5118,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5569","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/synergygroup.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5569","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/synergygroup.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/synergygroup.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/synergygroup.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/synergygroup.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5569"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/synergygroup.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5569\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/synergygroup.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5118"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/synergygroup.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5569"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/synergygroup.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5569"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/synergygroup.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5569"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
