The document summarizes Croatia's eight-year energy efficiency program from 2006-2013. It established a systematic energy management process across Croatia to reduce energy consumption and costs in public buildings. A key aspect was developing an Energy Management Information System to monitor energy use in over 8,500 public buildings and identify savings opportunities. Initial analysis found the program achieved estimated savings of 49.4 million kWh and over 2.6 million euros from 2010-2012, representing a 6.4% annual reduction. Further projected savings of 20 million euros were estimated through continued monitoring and potential retrofit projects. The program helped establish a framework for long-term energy management and improved efficiency in Croatia's public sector.
Energy Consumption in Europe – why is it increasing and what are the policy i...Leonardo ENERGY
Two years ago, the EU appeared to be well on the way to meeting its 2020 energy efficiency targets. 2014 final energy consumption was lower than in any year since the 1980s, and lower than the level required in 2020. Since then, energy consumption has risen in two consecutive years and looks set to have kept on increasing in 2017. If these short-term trends continue, the 2020 targets will be missed.
This webinar analyses the drivers of recent increases in EU energy consumption, sector-by-sector; assess the likely short-term evolution of consumption; and invite participants to discuss the implications for policy makers.

Since 2009 Utilities and City staff have incorporated energy efficient, conservation-minded
initiatives into the overall operations for the municipality. The 25x25 Plan demonstrates how both the City of Oconomowoc and Oconomowoc Utilities have worked hard to conserve financial and ecological resources.
This Updated 25x25 Plan should be viewed as a road map, which showcases all the key activities which have occurred since 2009 when the original plan was created. This updated Plan further high lights the importance of strategic decision-making and planning championed by City leadership and staff as evidenced by energy savings contained within this report
In 2013 the Oconomowoc Utilities Lead by Example team was tasked with updating the municipalities 25x25 Plan. The updated plan included water use data for the municipal operations as well as information on each municipal project that occurred between 2009 - 2013.
In her capacity as Lead by Example Team Coordinator Lisa Geason-Bauer was tasked with project managing the updated 25x25 Plan, she also served as lead plan author.

Germany is Europe’s biggest energy consumer. As a large and industrial country with moderate natural endowments, it sets an example of what can be done with a progressive energy policy. Germany leads the charge on renewables, has an ambitious energy efficiency policy, is committed to phasing out nuclear power generation and uses ETS revenues fully for the fight against climate change. However, the future of the German energy transition is rather uncertain. Are energy prices sustainable with the current high taxation rates? How to expand the high-voltage grid to integrate wind generation from the North? What will be the future role of coal and gas? In this discussion webinar, we will review the most important energy statistics for Germany, present a few highlights on its energy policy and conclude with a series of open discussion points.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

15 million EUR – cca. 6,40% yearly
• Assuming same trends as in 2012., saving until
September 2013. is cca. 20 million EUR
• Savings are achieved with very little implemented projects
of complete building reconstruction!
• Potential of savings after project implementation is huge,
up to 30 – 50%!
• To tackle this potential, ministries are starting national
investments programmes for buildings retrofits.
