Specified model solutions
Based on the model cases, six model solutions suitable for small and medium-sized municipalities in the project area were selected in a multi-stage selection process together with the project partners and associated partners. In surveys and expert interviews, the technologies were evaluated, for example in terms of their innovative character, availability, transferability and feasibility in the respective partner countries. Finally, a score-system was used to select those technologies that appear to be most suitable and feasible for cities in the project area. Finally, the following technologies were selected:
- Heat pumps
- Electric cars
- Batteries
- Latent heat storages in combination with photovoltaic systems
- Sensible heat storages in combination with photovoltaic systems
- Fuel cells combined with solar systems or heat pumps
Elaborated model solutions aim to accelerate the realization of CSSC solutions for municipalities and to describe the choice of different technical options that can be chosen. The solutions are a guideline for different city actors to find criteria for what is important to realize a CSSC solution and which technical solution fits to the city (see city types). The proposed model solutions are on the one hand innovative and ambitious in the realization, but on the other hand easy to implement in the actual conditions of the municipality. The model solutions are transferable to and from each participating country.

Description | In the city hall in Freiburg, almost the entire building envelope is used to generate energy. Photovoltaics – both on the roof and integrated into the facade – are mainly used. Domestic hot water is provided by hybrid collectors (PVT) supported by a gas condensing boiler. The heat supply is based on a low-temperature concept. Groundwater-coupled heat pumps are used. Heating and cooling are provided by surface systems in the form of concrete core activation combined with ceiling sails. Cooling is realized almost entirely with environmental energy via a groundwater well. High-temperature heat for heating drinking water – for the canteen and sanitary facilities – is provided by a gas boiler supported by solar thermal energy |

Energy savings rentability | In terms of primary energy, the building itself generates as much energy as it requires in the annual sum, which is equivalent to a 40 percent reduction in demand compared to a regular modern office building |
Difficulties encountered and lessons learned | Fraunhofer ISE intensively monitored the building as part of a research project, from the planning phase through implementation to the first years of operation. Overall, the monitoring results are positive: Most of the determined key figures are in line with the target values of the planning, which is by no means a matter of course for new buildings with a comparably complex system technology. However, the targets for heating consumption were not fully achieved, despite already low consumption values. The contributions from the solar thermal system are also below expectations. In total, however, the primary energy balance is almost complete. |

Description | As early as 1996, the Ludwigsburg Clinic decided to build a combined heat and power plant. Rising electricity consumption due to increasingly high-quality, large-scale medical equipment and the fact that it is fully utilized at all times made it economically sensible to expand in-house electricity generation. https://www.energieatlas-bw.de/-/klinikum-ludwigsburg In order to efficiently utilize the three combined heat and power plants with a total electrical output of 2 MW and at the same time cover the demand for heating and cooling as much as possible throughout the day, Ludwigsburg Hospital decided to optimize the heating and cooling network by using storage units. While there is only a low demand for heating and cooling during the night hours, the morning peak period is characterized by load peaks. This problem was mitigated by the use of an ice storage system. With a cooling capacity of 3,570 kWh and a volume of 55,000 l, this is charged at night by means of refrigeration machines and melted during the day. Power peaks are also reduced due to the lower daytime operation of the chiller. Charging the storage tank at night thus enables the CHP units to operate all day and leads to high utilization rates. Self-generated electricity could thus be increased to almost 100 %. Capacity, 3.75 MW Investment, 359,000 euros Service life, 20 years |

Country/Description/Link | Electric car as citizen car with fixed and individual tour, car sharing with PV system and battery storage. Ebhausen is rural and the public transport system is poorly developed. The municipality wanted to offer its citizens of Ebhausen a way to still be mobile. It is possible to book the car as car sharing without a driver. For physically limited persons or persons without a driver’s license it is possible to book the car with a volunteer driver. Also the car drives at fixed times (Tuesdays and Fridays) a fixed tour between the districts with 55 minutes stop at the market for shopping. To go one step further in environmental protection, the municipality operates a PV system on the roof of the town hall with which the electric car is charged. Since most of the time the electricity is needed in the evening or at night (car is used during the day and charged in the evening/night), the municipality has installed a battery to store the electricity. This way, some of the electricity generated is used in-house. The remaining electricity is fed into the grid. |

Country/Description/Link | PV – Carport in Ollersdorf, Burgenland in south-east Austria. The municipality of Ollersdorf initiated to build a PV – powered carport at the parking lot of the town hall, in order to provide renewable energy for charging electric vehicles. Currently two charging pods with a capacity of 22kW each are installed, with the options to install up to 7 charging pods in total in the future |
CO2eq reduction rentability | With the 2 charging pods in operation currently, the equipment is utilized for about 250 hours a year (each pod), which on average corresponds to an annual charged driving range of approx. 16.500 km. By substituting diesel and gasoline with renewable electricity about 3.42 ton CO2 are saved annually. |
Energy savings rentability | BEV’s are about three times more energy efficient as ICE cars. Based on the same parameters (16.500 annual km) about 5.125 kWh of energy can be saved annually. |
Difficulties encountered and lessons learned | In order to draw attention to the project and to improve public acceptance and opinion, an eye-catching design has been opted for, also utilizing mostly local sustainable materials such as larch wood. This made the utilization of non-standard PV modules necessary which caused delays in procurement and installation. As a lesson learned, future carports will be designed around standardized PV modules that can be easily procured and replaced if necessary. |
Evidence of success | The carport is in operation since 10/2019 and generated about 14.000 kWh of PV power since then. |
overview of operational management requirements | The charging infrastructure of the carport is integrated into an OCPP compliant back-end system where the whole charging procedure is managed (authorization of charges via RFID card or QR code, keeping charge data records, billing and payments). This service that has been outsourced to a charging service provider, who is also handling the customer support for these charging points. The PV installation (panels and frequency inverter) does not require operational management. |
Implementing and operating organization, involved local actors | The carport has been installed and is operated by a local company (Zentrum für Ökomobilität GmbH) in close cooperation with the municipality. The project has also been supported by the LEADER program. |
Timeframe Planning Phase | The planning phase, that also included a detail viability analysis was started in 2017 and was concluded in the first half of 2018. |
Timeframe Building Phase | The installation of the carport was carried out in the first half of 2019 and operation started in 10/2019 |
Country/Description/Link | The construction of solar power plants on the parking lot and the roof of the administrative building belongs to the first phase of the project and, in that way, about 40 percent of energy will be provided to cover the energy needs of this facility, which is about 500 thousand kWh of electricity per year. Over a thousand solar panels have been installed on the roof of the administrative building and the parking lot of EPCG, and the value of the first phase of the Project is estimated at close to 600 thousand euros. With the full realization of the Project, which includes the reconstruction of the administrative building, with the application of energy efficiency measures, we will get the first large energy-neutral facility in Niksic and among the largest in Montenegro. The positive effects of the energy renovation of the EPCG administrative building, in addition to the financial ones, are also reflected in the reduction of CO2 emissions, which will be additionally provided by the introduction of electric vehicles. EPCG has already procured two electric vehicles, and a higher representation of such cars in the fleet is planned. In the meantime, four chargers for electric vehicles have been installed with the installation of capacities that will enable the construction of more car chargers. With the completion of the entire project, the annual savings in electricity consumption will be around 140 thousand euros. The realization of the project creates conditions for obtaining an energy efficiency certificate, which is proof that the building is in accordance with the international standard ISO50001, as well as all the norms proposed by law in this area. |
