Low-Carbon
Savilahti project
Project Low-Carbon Savilahti
• To find possibilities of:
• Solar energy
• Geothermal energy
• District heating and cooling
• Hybrid solutions
• ICT and building automation
• Events and interaction
The lowcarbon
energy plan
of the
Savilahti
The main target of the low-carbon energy plan of the Savilahti area –project
is to survey the current state of energy efficiency in key development sectors of the area. The project
aims also at finding the best practices to develop an urban area as low-carbon way as possible.
FUNDING AND COLLABORATION
SaVE is part of Savilahti-project. SaVE implements Programme for Sustainable Growth and Jobs,
which is part of European Regional Development Fund. SaVE is funded by the Centre for Economic
Development, Transport and the Environment and cooperation partners .

Minimizing the electricity
consumption of cooling
Utilizing the lake water
Smart energy grids
Utilizing the lost heat of the
buildings
Energy surveys in Savilahti
Within 2016 there will be
completed surveys about
• geothermal and solar energy
potential,
• hybrid systems,
• energy storage
• low-energy networks
Solar energy is already in use
