The BEAM-Graz project, funded by the EU as part of the ongoing Intelligent Energy Europe IEE program, aims to increase energy efficiency measures and the use of renewable energy sources in public buildings. For the technical preparation of these measures, the EU provided funding, with the help of which building and consumption data could be collected and general guidelines, concepts and tools could be developed, which will continue to determine the topic and point the way. The three main pillars are the installation of an energy monitoring system in all larger urban buildings, the sustainable renovation of old buildings that have a high energy consumption, and the construction of energy-optimized new buildings instead of old objects that are only uneconomical to renovate. For this purpose, investments amounting to € 24.3 million have already been made within the funding period of 36 months. More are to follow in the next few years in order to achieve the project goal of saving 5,420 MWh and around 900 t CO2 / pa. BEAM-Graz According to the thematic objectives of the Municipal Energy and Climate Protection Concept 2020 (Kommunales Energie- und Klimaschutzkonzept KEK 2020), the City of Graz had committed to reduce its own energy consumption in the building sector, based upon the average for the years 2004 through 2008, by 30% by the year 2020. The BEAM-Graz project, which was supported by the EU's Intelligent Energy Europe (IEE) program, aimed at increasing the energy efficiency measures and the use of renewable energy sources in public buildings. Three pillars form the main focus of measures. These are the installation of an Energy Monitoring System, the sustainable refurbishment of buildings with a high energy consumption and the construction of energy optimized sustainable new buildings. For this, investments in the overall amount of € 24.3 million were undertaken within the period of 36 month and continued investments will be required in order to achieve the forecast savings of 5,420 MWh and approximately 900 t CO2 / pa Font size: A A A System: ico »enterprise.cms GBG Building and Construction Management Graz GmbH
