Renewable Energy Systems in the Mszana Dolna Region

The project's overall objective is to increase the share of renewable energy sources and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in a total of six public and 3'820 residential buildings located in six towns and villages. The project contributes to the implementation of the Polish government's energy policy (particularly with regard to increasing the share of renewable energy in the national energy balance and reducing emissions).

The goal of the project is to improve health and living conditions for the whole population in the covered region and to improve environmental conditions, particularly with regard to air quality, in the covered region.

The direct beneficiaries are carefully selected public institutions and private households located in six municipalities of the Malopolskie Voivodship in southeastern Poland. They will not only benefit from reduced emissions and better air quality, but also from a higher disposable income as less conventional fuel needs to be purchased. Indirect beneficiaries are the approximately 70'000 inhabitants of the six municipalities as well as visitors due to reduced emissions and better air quality.

• Purchase and installation of complete solar systems for public buildings for domestic hot water production.
• Purchase and installation of complete solar systems for residential buildings for domestic hot water production.
• Awareness raising and training courses to ensure that the new renewable energy systems are used and maintained properly and that accompanying energy saving measures are taken.

Resultados obtenidos:  

• Solar thermal systems installed on 3,909 private buildings
• Solar thermal systems installed on six public buildings
• Substantial reduction of CO, CO2, SO2, NOx and PM10 achieved.
