Organiziramo brezplačni delavnici na temo energetskih sanacij in ogrevanja V okviru Misije 100 podnebno nevtralnih in pametnih mest (pilotnega projekta UP-SCALE), smo v Starem Velenju odprli Podnebno-energetsko pisarno z namenom spodbujanja in izobraževanja občanov na področjih porabe energije, mobilnosti, odpadkov ter zelenega gospodarstva. V oktobru pripravljamo dve izobraževanji na temo energetske sanacije in energetske ogrevalne problematike. V četrtek, 10. oktobra, od 16.30 do 18. ure pripravljamo delavnico z naslovom Priprava ogrevalnega sistema večstanovanjskih stavb. V četrtek, 17. oktobra, od 16.30 do 18. ure pa vabljeni na delavnico z naslovom Pravilno ogrevanje in prezračevanje bivalnih prostorov. Izobraževanji bosta brezplačni, se je pa potrebno prijaviti do 10. oktobra na elektronski naslov: pep@velenje.si. Z novo Podnebno-energetsko pisarno zagotavljamo občanom podporo pri zeleni preobrazbi.

✔️ 🟢 Last month, our partners from University of Ljubljana, Faculty Of Mechanical Engineering moderated panel "Transition to Carbon Neutrality in Energy-Intensive Industries at #TBMCE conference 2024! (Technologies & Business Models for Circular Economy) 🌍♻️ The conference was organized by the Faculty of Chemistry and Chemical Technology at the Univerza v Mariboru in collaboration with SRIP - Circular Economy and Štajerska gospodarska zbornica - ŠGZ, and sponsored by the Ministrstvo za gospodarstvo, turizem in šport / Ministry of the Economy, Tourism and Sport and focused on innovative approaches to the #circulareconomy, from development to practical implementation. Key topics included the #transition from fossil to #renewableenergysources and from linear to circular business models. It brought together representatives from business, research and education, trade associations and governments to discuss issues in six panels: ♻️ #Carbonneutrality in energy-intensive industries ♻️ Valorisation of used and contaminated #wood ♻️ #Circularconstruction and mineral carbonation ♻️ Critical #rawmaterials for #circulareconomy ♻️ #Industrialsymbiosisopportunities ♻️ AI and circular economy: a match made in heaven? The conference was a great opportunity to connect with partners, researchers, and innovators, and to share experiences from our #3DIVERSE project. The panel "Transition to Carbon Neutrality in Energy-Intensive Industries," led by our partners from University of Ljubljana, Faculty Of Mechanical Engineering was particularly relevant to our work on a fair green transition in the Šaleška Valley, focusing on district heating system improvements. 🔊 read more: https://lnkd.in/dMXQzzBx #CircularEconomy #TBMCE2024 #GreenTransition #3DIVERSE #Innovation #Sustainability #distrctheatingsystem #TBMCE #CircularEconomy #SustainableFuture #Innovation #IndustrialSymbiosis #RawMaterials #CarbonNeutrality   SRIP - Circular Economy Ministrstvo za gospodarstvo, turizem in šport / Ministry of the Economy, Tourism and Sport Ministrstvo za kohezijo in regionalni razvoj Ministrstvo za visoko šolstvo, znanost in inovacije / Ministry of HE, Science and Innovation Štajerska gospodarska zbornica - ŠGZ ZAG - Zavod za gradbeništvo Slovenije Štajerska gospodarska zbornica - ŠGZ Pomurje Technology Park EITRawMaterials RIS Hub Adria

The 3Diverse project meeting, hosted by Energetska agencija KSSENA / Energy Agency KSSENA in Velenje, brought together partners to review key results and #progress. The consortium presented advancements in district heating systems 🔥, energy renovations 🏢, digital twin technology 🌐, and innovative financing solutions like coin-based models for citizens 💸. Engaging discussions focused on stakeholder engagement and the potential for replicating these sustainable solutions across Europe. 🌍 With one more year of work ahead before the project ends, there’s still important work to be done to achieve our goals. ⚡ #3DiverseProject #Sustainability #EnergyEfficiency #Innovation #StakeholderEngagement #InnovativeFinancing #EUProjects LIFE Programme Komunalno podjetje Velenje, Laboratory of Energy Policy (UL), Laboratory for refrigeration and district energy, Kolektor sETup
