18. Seppo Silvonen 12.12.2005 Direct government support The government finances the costs of the operating agent (Motiva) of the Finnish energy audit program and gives 40…50 % support for the energy auditing project expenses 15…20 % subsidies for conventional energy saving investments for companies who have joined the voluntary Energy Conservation Agreements with the Government. Higher subsidies (20..25 %) has been granted for ESCO investment projects at least until the end of the year 2004 by the government

20. Seppo Silvonen 12.12.2005 Regional Energy Audits meant for mapping the existing use of fuels and the potential for increasing the use of RES in the production of heat and power in a munici- pality or other region supporting the working out of the plan for RES in implementing the voluntary energy conservation agreement done by working out a regional energy balance estimating the available sources of renewable energy identifying facilities where the available sources of renewable energy could feasibly replace the use of non-renewable energy sources
