03 PEEBPE project: The Idea Regional characteristics such as:  Very cold climate where winters can last up to 9 months  Closely-located lignite-fired stations contribute to the pollution of the area  Contribution to the aim  The expertise of the Region and the OLP on energy issues  INTERREG potential  The need for building relations of trust Promotion of Energy Efficiency in Buildings - Protection of the Environment Dimitrios Stimoniaris

04 PEEBPE project: The Idea Residence, public and commercial buildings:  are the largest energy consumer  are responsible for 40% of the consumed energy  are the largest CO 2 emission sources in the EU Promotion of Energy Efficiency in Buildings - Protection of the Environment Dimitrios Stimoniaris

05 PEEBPE project: The Idea Public buildings in Greece:  are usually big (schools, hospitals, municipalities, regional buildings…)  usually old (historical, protected…)  old E/M equipment  bad constructions  badly maintained  absence of energy management systems  lack of interest  extremely energy consuming Promotion of Energy Efficiency in Buildings - Protection of the Environment Dimitrios Stimoniaris
