Annual revenues from the sale of energy services in
2020 amounted to EUR 817,000, which is 140 percent
more than in 2019, when sales revenues amounted
to EUR 340,000. Actual annual energy savings
through energy contracting projects amounted to
7,600 MWh in 2020, and annual financial savings to
EUR 881,000. This year, we reduced CO₂ emissions
by 4,200 tons, which is equivalent to the amount
absorbed by 126,000 trees annually. We continued to
invest in energy contracting and other technologies
in Slovenia.
According to the model of energy contracting, which
provides energy savings based on the repayment
of investments in energy efficiency directly from
the saved energy costs, we energetically renovated
the Secondary School of Economics, Services and
Construction of the School Centre Kranj. In three
months, we replaced an old uneconomical boiler
room with an energy-efficient one, which will use
a highly efficient heat pump in combination with
a natural gas condensing boiler to produce heat.

would be needed.
We continued to implement energy efficient and
environmentally friendly projects in the field of heat
production and outdoor and indoor LED lighting,
and updated our range of technologies with the
implementation of the cooling project (Elan). In
2019, we had seven such projects, and in 2020, 12
new projects in which we invested approximately
5 million euros. With the acquisition of Ekoenergo,
d.o.o., and Osen toplota, d.o.o., we increased our
portfolio of district heating systems – Ekoenergo,
d.o.o., produces heat from wood biomass for district
heating of prisons in Dob and electricity from biomass
cogeneration plants for sale on the market, and Osen
heat, d.o.o., takes care of the production and supply
of thermal energy in the municipality of Pivka.
