In order to use energy resources responsibly and efficiently, taking into account environmentally responsible and resource-efficient consumption, current and projected fossil fuel (natural gas) prices, as well as the sustainability and green policy of the City of Vilnius, the budgetary institution Valakampiai Social Services Home, having assessed the available opportunities and economic benefits, decided to participate in the call for applications announced by the Environmental Projects Management Agency for the use of renewable energy sources (solar, geothermal energy and biofuels) to meet the needs of state and municipal institutions, traditional religious communities, religious associations or centres, and non-governmental organisations by replacing fossil fuels.<\/p>\n
On 24 August 2022, the institution submitted Application No. KK-AM-KV02-0012 under the above-mentioned call for applications. The application was evaluated and approved, and funding was allocated for the installation of 82.5 kW heat pumps at the Valakampiai Social Services Home.<\/p>\n

It should be noted that the implementation of the above-mentioned project will also provide financial benefits to the Institution. A quantitative analysis showed that in 2021, the Institution\u2019s Specialized Nursing and Social Care Unit consumed 10,764 m\u00b3 of natural gas for heating and hot water production, while the Long-Term Care Unit consumed 12,425 m\u00b3. The total annual natural gas consumption of these units amounted to 23,189 m\u00b3.\n\nTaking into account fluctuations and market trends in natural gas prices for legal entities (EUR 3.18\/m\u00b3 in September 2022), the annual gas consumption was equivalent to approximately EUR 73,741.\n\nFollowing the implementation of the project, the gas boilers in Building 2 (Long-Term Care Unit) and the Specialized Nursing and Social Care Unit were dismantled, and the use of natural gas for heating and hot water production was completely eliminated.<\/p>\n
