This is the good practice's implementation level. It can be national, regional or local.
About this good practice
To establish a more integral solution for energy management of its own buildings, the City of Zagreb together with Končar – Electronic and Informatics Inc developed its own Energy Information System (EIS) software. Although an energy monitoring system already exists on national level (called ISGE) the City decided to make a more complex and comprehensive software that would provide additional functionalities such as:
• Support in planning investments into energy refurbishment and monitoring refurbishment projects (measurement and verification of energy savings);
• Interconnectivity with smart meters subsequent to creation of data bridges, which enables consumption monitoring on a daily basis;
• Early detection and alarming in case of breakdowns, unexpected events and poor energy performance of buildings.
EIS enables simplified energy and water consumption and costs data access as well as easy graphical and tabular data representation and reporting from conducted analysis. Part of functionalities also includes a simple user interface for local energy efficiency plans data preparation and reporting.
Due to BEM of public buildings the City can easily check whether consumption targets from SEAP are being met and intensify its efforts if it is needed..
EIS software includes modules for making energy efficiency investment scenarios, cost assessment and cost control reports. An estimate of future energy spending will be based on various algorithms and multiple indicators

Resources needed
250.000,00 €;
Evidence of success
- Analysis and monitoring activities about critical consumption periods for all buildings within the system.
- Alarming system for avoiding extreme and unwanted energy and water consumption costs and helps to reduce energy consumption of all buildings.
- 957 public buildings connected to the system.
As a part of the integral renovation concept within the ZagEE project all buildings were equipped with smart meters and remote reading of energy consumption.

Potential for learning or transfer
- How to collect and organize data about energy and water consumption;
- Monitoring and alarming system as a tool for planning future investments;
