Status of RES in Western Greece MW MW Wind Energy (86.66 %) MW Hydroelectric (13.34 %) (July 2010)

Actions in the field of ENERGY 1. Regional Energy Centre of Western Greece ( ) 2. City of Patras full signatory of the Covenant of Mayors 3. National initiative EXOIKONOMO (Energy Saving) 4. European Projects 5. Environmental Education / Change of Citizen Energy Behavior 6. Other actions

1. Regional Energy Centre of Western Greece ( *) Basic conclusions Transport the most energy-consuming (50%) High electricity demand in housing sector (36%) Strong dependence on fossil fuels, limited RES (2,1%) Transport the highest percentage in CO 2 emmissions(66%) Public lighting 4% of energy consumption *Suspended its action due to lack of funding

2. Covenant of Mayors Signed on 06/11/2008 Preparation of the Sustainable Energy Action Plan (SEAP) for the City of Patras is underway with the assistance of the National Centre for Renewable Energy Sources (CRES)

3. Program EXOIKONOMO (Energy Saving) Implementation of Energy Efficiency in Municipalities (> inhabitants) Aims at: Improvement of Energy Efficiency at local level Promotion of Demonstration Actions with immediate results Sensitisation of Citizens Sensitisation of Local officials

3. Program EXOIKONOMO (Energy Saving) Axis 1: existing municipal buildings (55-65%) Energy upgrade of the building shell for the reduction in heating and cooling demand Energy upgrade of the electro-mechanical installations for the increase of energy efficiency of municipal buildings Upgrade of the system of natural/artificial lighting Installation of energy management system (BEMS) with a monitor for projecting the results to the citizens Axis 2: public urban spaces (15-25%) Axis 3: urban transport (0-15%) Axis 4: municipal technical infrastructure (0-4%) Axis 5: dissemination, networking and updating of municipal officials (0-4%)

3. Program EXOIKONOMO (Energy Saving) Complete Action Plan ( ) Implementation Plan ( ) 70% funding from the program

3. Examples of interventions Building Shell External sunshades Thermal insulation Replacement of old windows, doors and frames Green roof Electromechanical installations for heating/cooling Central air-conditioning instead of independent units Replacement of old boiler with newer of higher performance Insulation of the central heating column and of the pipes Energy management (BEMS) Integrated Electronic management system

3. Dissemination, Networking, Publicity Information towards the Energy Manager of the Municipality for the interventions and the proposed mode of function for the buildings Information towards the Engineers of the Municipality Presentation to Users of the Buildings (employees, citizens, students, teachers) of the interventions, the expected results and the functioning of the new systems Annual evaluation of the energy consumption of the buildings and information to the users

4. European Projects CC-Waters (Climate Change and impacts of Water Supply) South East Europe ACT (Adapting to Climate Change) LIFE+ ENESCOM (European Network of Information Centers promoting Energy Sustainability among local Communities) Intelligent Energy GP WIND (Good Practice in Reconciling offshore and onshore wind energy with environmental objectives) Intelligent Energy PLUS (Public Lighting Strategies for Sustainable Urban Spaces) Interreg IVC

5. Change of Citizens Energy Behavior Training to 90 School Teachers Presentations of educational material to 13 schools (~1.800 students) By The National Centre for Renewable Energy Sources (CRES) WWF Greece

6. Other Actions Small amounts of energy-saving lighting introduced each year based on initiative of the Head of Department of City Lighting (e.g. Square Kapodistrias)

6. Other Actions Procurement of energy-saving lighting for periods of intense energy consumption (i.e. Christmas, Carnival)
