8. TWO MAIN PRIORITIES FOR DECISION MAKERS

9. WHAT IS THE „SMART“ IDEA? Smart is a best practice! Specific Measurable Achievable Realistic Time-bound

10. SMART PEOPLE SMART CARS SMART CITIES

11. WHAT ABOUT SUSTAINBLE AND GREEN CITIES? There are three main pillars of sustainable and green cities :  Urban Communication Technology;  Transport and mobility;  Energy use. I will focus on Energy use, how Lithuania has achieved in Energy efficient field.

12. 75% of EU’s housing stock is currently not energy efficient. Vice-President of Energy Union Maroš Šefčovič 12

13. 50% of the EU's annual energy consumption in buildings and industries heating and cooling sector In February 2016, the European Commission approved an EU Heating strategy. This is the first strategy addressed to optimize buildings' and industries' heating and cooling sector.

14. LITHUANIAN ENERGY EFFICIENCY PROGRAM PRACTICAL EXAMPLE

15. Lithuanian success formula since 2013-more than 1300 buildings renovated,3500 in process

16. Some examples Ozo str. 22, Vilnius Year of construction: 1982 Number of apartment: 36 Heated area: 2305 m² Implemented: insulation of walls and roof, glazing of balconies, windows replacement, modernized heating system (one pipe system into two pipes system, balancing) Investment: EUR 326.000 Energy savings: 71%, Class C

17. Some examples Marijonu str. 31, Panevezys Solar energy is the most abundant energy source of earth Year of construction: 1958 Number of apartment: 35 Heated area: 2525 m² Implemented: central gas boiler, insulation of walls and roof, installed heat cost allocators, solar collector Investment: EUR 384.000 Energy savings: 65%, Class B

18. Building built in 1964 Number of apartments: 101 Heated area: 5.671 m ² Investment: EUR 0,608 mill. Implemented: insulation of walls, roof, windows replacement, glazing of balconies, modernization of heating system Results: -energy savings 70,14% -before – class D -after – class B, -energy consumption – 60 kWh/m ² Some examples Vilties str. 18, Vilnius

19. Why building renovation is so important in every country? Energy efficiency of buildings is a triple win!

20. Good for home-owners: greater comfort, lower bills, added value Experience from energy efficiency upgrading projects in multifamily buildings shows that a combination of measures: - replacement of windows and external doors, - insulation of external surfaces: roofs and walls, - modernization of heating substations and balancing of heat systems reduce energy consumption by around 50-70 %. 20

21. Good for the country's economic growth  The energy efficiency Programme investment value more than 500 million Euros (JESSICA Holding Fund with private investment of commercial banks, State budget);  Currently renovation projects are implemented by 300 small or medium construction companies (creates new jobs);  Investments in the renovation process is about 10% of the total investment in the construction sector in the country.

22. G ood for planet: lower carbon emissions, resource conservation  After modernization possibility to reduce energy consumption up to 50- 70 %  By implementing the Programme also are solved environmental protection issues (reduction CO² emission, urban environment, cities regeneration plans, etc.)

23. ? What is the main reason of success?

24. PARTNERSHIP Partnership and team work is the main condition for success. increaincrease community inclusionse comm increase community inclusion Local and regional authorities are the key players where theory is moving to practice, place there legal requirements becomes practical actions with visible results.

25. PARTNERSHIP FOR SMART SUSTAINABLE CITIES Leadership with ITU ITU commitment to connect the World; ICT can connect whole world; PPP networks at national and international level.
