Within the works completed in July of last year, more than one million Convertible Marks were invested in the implementation of energy efficient measures at Silvija Strahimir Kranjčević Elementary School in Mostar.
As a matter of fact, this very educational institution was one of those visited by a delegation of the World Bank this week, led by Regional Director for Strategy and Operations for Europe and Central Asia, Mariam Sherman.
Within a several-day visit, the delegation, together with Project and Cantonal representatives and authorities, visited facilities in several cities of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, where works were carried out within the BEEP Project.
On this occasion, they thoroughly analyzed the measures implemented so far, listened to personal experiences, and ultimately expressed their satisfaction with the results achieved.
Through the activities of the Energy Efficiency Project in BiH (BEEP), just at Silvija Strahimir Kranjčević Elementary School several energy efficient measures have been implemented. This includes thermal insulation of the façade and roof, replacement of a part of the existing exterior joinery with new PVC carpentry, installation of a new biomass boiler, and the construction of a pellet warehouse. Ultimately, energy consumption was reduced, resulting in economic savings, but also reduced CO2 emissions.
For all 513 users of this institution, but also users of all the other facilities that were part of the Project, this means improvements in comfort, which is extremely significant taken into account the amount people who work and educate themselves in these institutions every day.
