1. Implementation of the EPBD in Slovenia – Status in 2020Marjana Šijanec Zavrl, Miha Tomšič, Henrik Gjerkeš, Erik Potočar, 2021, končno poročilo o rezultatih raziskav Opis: The Concerted Action EPBD (CA EPBD) addresses the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD). It aims to contribute to the reduction of energy use in European buildings, through the exchange of knowledge and best practices in the field of energy efficiency and energy savings between all 28 EU Member States plus Norway.
The CA EPBD is a joint initiative between the EU Member States and the European Commission. It involves representatives of national ministries or their affiliated institutions who are in charge of preparing the technical, legal and administrative framework for the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive in each EU Member State, plus Norway. The objective is to enhance the sharing of information and experiences from national adoption and implementation of this important European legislation.
The transposition of the EPBD in Slovenia is the overall responsibility of the Ministry of Infrastructure and was primarily transposed by the Energy Act (EZ-1), covering the topics of NZEB, energy performance certification, inspection of heating and AC systems and energy efficiency information programmes. The Act on Energy Efficiency (ZURE) integrates the EZ-1 articles related to the EPBD.
The revision of the building codes (PURES) is still in progress and planned for publication in late 2021. It will contain detailed technical requirements for NZEB based on the technical definition given in the national NZEB action plan, and the revision of the calculation methodology according to a new set of CEN EPBD standards.
Important recent steps in EPBD implementation are the application of the central national electronic register of EPCs and associated software, the independent control system for EPCs, first steps in the cross-linking of e-registries for EPCs, inspections and public buildings, as well as wide information activities implemented by the Eco Fund concerning financial instruments available for the energy renovation of buildings.

6. Determination of Iron in Environmental Water Samples by FIA-TLSMiha Tomšič, Leja Goljat, Hanna Budasheva, Dorota Korte, Arne Bratkič, Mladen Franko, 2019, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: The determination of low concentration of iron in natural waters can be difficult due to the complexity of natural water, but primarily because it requires preconcentration of the sample with solvent extraction. In this work we report on results of thermal lens spectrometry (TLS) coupled to flow injection analysis (FIA) as a highly sensitive FIA-TLS method of iron detection. The concentration of iron redox species was determined using 1,10-phenanthroline (PHN), that forms stable complexes with Fe(II) ions which are characterized by an absorption maximum at 508 nm. The TLS system using a 633 nm probe laser and 530 nm pump laser beam was exploited for on-line detection in flow injection analysis, where a PHN solution was used as the carrier solution for FIA. The concentration of the complexing agent affects the quality of the TLS signal, and the optimal concentration was found at 1 mM PHN. The achieved limits of detection (LODs) for Fe(II) and total iron were 33 nM for Fe(II) and 21 nM for total iron concentration. The method was further validated by determining the linear concentration range, specificity in terms of analytical yield and by determining concentration of iron in a water sample from a local water stream.

9. Potentials and Limitations of Local Fiscal Policies as Instruments for Sustainable Development in SloveniaMiha Tomšič, Henrik Gjerkeš, Marjana Šijanec-Zavrl, Irena Bačlija Brajnik, Vladimir Prebilič, 2019, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Opis: Local communities are one of the main cornerstones of sustainable development. They play
a vital role in utilisation of national policy instruments and exhibit the largest influence on the
energy use in the building and transport sectors. Sensible energy management can also
positively enhance evolution of local sustainability features by incorporating concepts of local
energy self-supply, decentralised energy production and circular economy. Positive economic
and social impacts can be generated by adapting strategies and policies to the local environment
while considering its endogenous potentials.
By analysing the current status, identifying and quantifying potentials, and setting clear
delimitation of responsibilities and legal constraints, local authorities can be helped to shape
innovative local fiscal policies focused on intensification of use of local renewable energy
sources and fostering of more efficient use of energy both in public and private sectors. Those
revenues whose height and content can be determined by local authorities have a very different
role in the budget already in 8 analysed Slovenian municipalities. They were quantified and
used as an analytical basis for solution-oriented steps in the design of measures to adapt local
fiscal policies to the increased use of renewable resources energy. Ključne besede: fiscal policy, municipality, energy use, renewables, sustainability Objavljeno v RUNG: 27.03.2019; Ogledov: 4807; Prenosov: 0 Gradivo ima več datotek! Več... |
10. Pri usklajevanju lastnikov imajo ključno vlogo upravniki : Energijske prenoveJulijana Bavčar, 2017, intervju Opis: Lastnike stanovanj za energijsko prenovo večstanovanjskih stavb motivira ponudba subvencij, veliko vlogo pa igra tudi povračilni rok za posamezne ukrepe. Pogosto se odločijo za tiste, ki so cenejši in se prej izplačajo, zato ostanejo na pol poti. Ker se razmere pri doseganju energetskih kazalnikov vedno bolj zaostrujejo, tehnologije pa so čedalje zahtevnejše, so uspešni projekti, za katere imajo lastniki že v fazi sprejemanja odločitev strokovno tehnično podporo. O nepogrešljivih korakih za uspešno izvedbo celovite energijske prenove, katere najotipljivejša rezultata sta prihranek za energijo in ugodnejše bivanje, smo se pogovarjali z dr. Marjano Šijanec Zavrl, mag. Mihom Tomšičem in dr. Henrikom Gjerkešem z Gradbenega inštituta ZRMK.
