Summary
A series of seminars - a 'road show' - was arranged in 1999 in seven places, with a total of 190 participants from 39 different municipalities. The aim of the road show was to motivate customer groups and to discuss financial matters, especially concerning the financing of rehabilitation projects. In addition, energy and environmental aspects of energy efficiency were presented. After completing each of the seminars, new innovative financial means (financial instruments in municipalities) were identified.
A tool generating the best life cycle cost (LCC) options was developed. The tool is now available on the Internet and is being used by municipalities in their evaluation on rehabilitation projects concerning lighting. A number of problems faced by municipalities in realizing projects through the method have been brought up. As an aid for the municipalities, a brochure has been developed and distributed.
This case study is one of 31 Good Practice Case Studies published by the OPET Network in 2005
