The activity is also designed to assist PSK in establishing an energy management unit within PSK’s Property Management Department (PMD). This report on ‘Strategic Planning for Scaling-up EE in PSK Buildings’ examines financing mechanisms for investment in energy efficiency projects in public buildings in Slovakia, the readiness of market participants such as Energy Service Companies (ESCOs) and installers, and the supportive legal framework for ESCOs to implement projects in public buildings. The report provides a systematic process for identifying and prioritizing EE investment projects, and a financing framework for undertaking investments in PSK public buildings. The report has been prepared in close collaboration with the relevant teams from the PSK office and with inputs from multiple stakeholders in Slovakia. This report builds on the earlier task which prepared a ‘Diagnostic Assessment of the Regulatory and Institutional Framework to Increase Opportunities for the Implementation of EE in PSK public buildings.’ That diagnostics report provided an overview and analysis of existing EE regulatory and legal mandates, implementation instruments, regional procurement regulations, and financing schemes at the central and regional levels, which are included in the first part of this report.  Réduire
