Municipal real estate plays a significant role in the daily lives of residents and the economy of the municipality. However, decision-making regarding properties is often in the hands of laypeople, leading to short-sighted and unsustainable decisions. SYKLI's new project aims to improve the knowledge and decision-making capacity of municipal decision-makers and real estate professionals by providing up-to-date information and training on energy efficiency and lifecycle thinking. Project Objectives: 1. Compile and update information on energy efficiency investments and their benefits for municipal actors. 2. Organize workshops and events where different stakeholders working in energy efficiency can network and develop new projects and pilots. 3. Equip decision-makers and officials with the skills to make energy-efficient investment decisions using lifecycle thinking. 4. Train professionals working with properties to implement practical energy efficiency measures. The project aims to enhance the energy efficiency of municipal buildings and promote the use of renewable energy. It introduces an energy efficiency pathway with indicators to easily track municipal progress. The project updates training materials from previous initiatives and includes content for municipal decision-makers, energy and real estate experts, and property managers. The project offers training for different target groups. For municipal decision-makers, online self-study materials and evening lectures will be produced. This material will be integrated into investment preparations and relevant meetings. Interactive workshops will be organized for municipal experts to discuss challenges and solutions related to energy investments. Additionally, training days will be held for property managers and practical workers, focusing on implementing energy efficiency and lifecycle thinking in daily tasks. Supporting materials will be freely available for all trainings. The project will pilot easily readable energy and condition meters, monitored in pilot locations. The goal is to find a cost-effective, comprehensive, and user-friendly system for tracking energy goals, with its use included in training for property managers and experts. Decision-makers will be informed about tracking results and data utilization in decision-making. The project builds on the 2021 LIFE-funded EconomisE project, which trained municipal decision-makers to advance energy efficiency in properties. The need for the project has been highlighted by the energy crisis and the growing need for climate-wise investments. Discussions with municipalities, research institutions, and the Association of Finnish Local and Regional Authorities have revealed that municipal decision-makers often lack sufficient information on the benefits of investments relative to costs. The project compiles the latest research into clear and understandable formats for municipal decision-makers and other actors. It ensures that technical decisions are based on up-to-date and comprehensive information, enabling more sustainable and efficient management and development of municipal properties.
