Improving energy efficiency 

Within the framework of this project, presentation and advice events related to energy efficiency are organized and practical information is offered on recovering waste heat and improving the energy efficiency of buildings.  Energy audits are done as a purchase service as a model in public facilities, such as village halls. 

Switching to renewable energy and improving energy efficiency makes the rural environment more interesting for both residents and businesses.

Go to South Karelia! The employees of the project advise all residents living in the sparsely populated area of ​​South Karelia on the comparison of different forms of energy. The advice uses ready-made calculations for example houses and Motiva's comparison calculator for heating methods. Counseling is carried out remotely for the time being.

In the project, energy inspections and suggestions for improving energy efficiency will be made for five village houses. The reports will be completed by April. They publish model cards for others, for example.

As a benefit, energy efficiency measures provide financial savings either immediately or in the longer term.  The goal is to find 5-10 locations in the province where this work is carried out. Pilot sites receive an energy audit free of charge.
