REVIEW OF EXISTING ENERGY MANAGEMENT STANDARDS AND POSSIBILITIES FOR ITS INTRODUCTION IN SERBIA

Until recent times, energy management practices primarily consisted in replacing inefficient equipment and then using any number of methods to estimate obtained savings. Experience shows that positive effects of energy efficient improvements were decreased over time. There have been significant efforts over the last decade to define appropriate standards and best practices and implement the consistent energy management system to increase and maintain the energy savings. The knowledge gained from thousands of energy efficient projects is driving a transition from traditional tactical practice (one-time "build and forget" projects) to energy management strategies proposed and endorsed by a number of international organizations. The current status of internationally developed energy management standards, including an analysis of their shared features and differences is presented in this paper. The purpose of the analysis is to describe the current state of "best practices" for this emerging area of energy efficiency policymaking in order to study the possibility of implementation of energy management standards in Serbia and to estimate the effects and the potential for energy saving that would be made by its implementation

Energy auditing and energy saving measures in 'Zastava Automobili' factory

This paper deals with energy audit procedure implemented on only Serbian car manufacturer 'Zastava Automobili'. Based on the results of energy auditing and performed technological and economical feasibility studies several energy saving measures were proposed. The measures are related to different energy sources: steam, hot water, compressed air, electricity, and water. Such energy efficiency programs reduce energy costs and increase production profitability of the factory

ABOUT CREATION AND REACHED GOALS OF DEVELOPMENT POLICY IN THE AREA OF ENERGY EFFICIENCY, ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN THE CITY OF KRAGUJEVAC

This paper presents a methodology development and the results achieved in the process of establishing energy management system in the City of Kragujevac (Serbia) and in its public services. The paper is an overview of influential factors in the field of energy management, analyzing their impact on raising the energy efficiency of individual utility service and the city of Kragujevac, as a whole. The paper also presents the most interesting scientific and research projects realized in the cooperation of several actors which were coordinated by Regional Euro Energy Efficiency Center Kragujevac. The municipal companies together with the city administration are the direct beneficiaries of the results realized in the following areas: -Development of energy management in municipalities and the establishment of energy planning at the local level; -Improvement of municipal services by applying energy efficiency measures in public enterprises: "Energetika" (heating), "Cistoca" (communal waste management), and "Vodovod i kanalizacija" (water and waste water management)
