Abstract

The Circular’s goal is to implement government's decision to reduce the national’s energy consumption by at least 14% in 2020 compared to 2006, and to reduce state water consumption. This will be achieved by promoting energy efficient behavior in government institutions and to ensure energy-efficient operation and maintenance of buildings owned and leased by the State. Reduction of energy consumption should be measured in kWh and include: energy consumption for heating and cooling, including process energy. The Danish Energy Agency shall publish guidance on the methodology to be used for the calculation of 2006-2020 energy consumption. The Danish Energy Agency shall directo to www.energibesparelseristaten.dk for individual ministries's websites where reporting and information shall be accessible.
