	Congratulations to family Andreevi who won the 2014 InfraHEAT competition! As a winner in the competition, family Andreevi receives free heaters InfraHEAT for their home. At the same time, their apartment will be used as a test dwelling where each month the performance of the InfraHEAT panels will be measured, according to the characteristics of each premise. One of the reasons to select this dwelling as the winner is the family which has two chidlren with asthma. We will await comments how the children feel in a home heated by InfraHEAT. Furthermore, the apartment has exposure to three different directions (north, west, south), which gives a great opportunity to check the performance of the infrared panels.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	Await more news about the impressions of the family from this heating season!</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">
	<strong>Благодарим сърдечно на сем. Любомирови от гр. Велико Търново за доверието и топлите думи!</strong></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">

<p style="text-align: justify;">
	<em>&bdquo;Ние сме четири членно семейство от Велико Търново. Имаме две деца &ndash; момиче на 5 години и момче на 4 месеца. В избора на отоплителни уреди сме водени от идеята за нисък разход на енергия, модерна визия и не на последно място здравословно отопление. Всички тези критерии открихме единствено в инфрачервеното отопление, като за избора ни помогнаха и познанията ни в областта на физиката, тъй като аз и съпругата ми сме дипломирани инженер-химици. Така през миналия зимен сезон закупихме 1 панел InfraHEAT 1000 L от стандартната серия, с който отоплявахме дневната и успявахме да поддържаме температура, при която се чувствахме комфортно, независимо че през по-голямата част от зимните месеци бяхме единствените обитатели на секцията. Останахме удовлетворени от факта, че всичко прочетено в сайта Ви за инфрачервеното отопление и предлаганите уреди има реално покритие. Също така от това, че коректността на фирмата за консултация, поръчка и доставка е на много високо ниво. Тези наши впечатления споделихме с близки и приятели, повечето от които макар и песимистично настроени останаха изненадани след като видяха положителните резултати в отоплението и вписването му в интериора на нашия дом. Възнамеряваме да закупим и оборудваме цялото си жилище с инфрачервени панели, поетапно, съобразено с финансовата ни възможност. При първоначална консултация през миналата година с Ваш сътрудник за дневната ни беше определена мощност от 1600 вата и за това ще се възползваме от акцията и ще закупим още един инфрачервен панел &ndash; картина. С това ще обезпечим помещението за по-тежка зима и ще допълним визията на холската част в дневната.</em></p>

<p class="A_Standard__34__20_Chapeau" style="text-align: justify;">
	<em><strong>New opportunities for European businesses, affordable energy bills for consumers, increased energy security through a significant reduction of natural gas imports and a positive impact on the environment: these are some of the expected benefits of the energy efficiency target for 2030 put forward by the European Commission in a Communication. The proposed target of 30% builds on the achievements already reached: new buildings use half the energy they did in the 1980s and industry is about 19% less energy intensive than in 2001.</strong></em></p>
<p class="A_Standard__35__20_Normal" style="text-align: justify;">
	The proposed target goes beyond the 25% energy savings target which would be required to achieve a 40% reduction of CO2 emissions by 2030. At the same time the framework on energy efficiency put forward today aims to strike the right balance between benefits and costs.</p>
<p class="A_Standard__35__20_Normal" style="text-align: justify;">
	G&uuml;nther H. Oettinger, Vice-President of the EU Commission<span class="A__T3"> </span><span class="A__T2">responsible for energy said:</span><span class="A__T3"> &quot;Our proposal is the basis to</span><span class="A__T1"> drive the EU towards increased security of supply, innovation and sustainability, all in an affordable way. It is ambitious and at the same time it is realistic. </span><span class="A__T3">The energy efficiency strategy will complete the 2030 framework on energy and climate which has been presented in January 2014. Our aim is to give the right signal to the market and encourage further investments in energy saving technologies to the benefit of businesses, consumers and the environment.&quot;</span></p>
<p class="A_Standard__35__20_Normal" style="text-align: justify;">
	The Communication on energy efficiency and its contribution to energy security and the 2030 framework presented today also reviews progress towards the European Union&#39;s 20% energy efficiency target for 2020. The EU is currently forecast to achieve energy savings of 18-19% in 2020; however, the agreed target of 20% can be reached if all EU countries fully implement the already agreed legislation. The Commission does not intend to propose new measures, but calls on the Member States to step up their efforts to ensure collective delivery of the 2020 target.</p>
<h2 class="A_Sous-titre_20_1_P7" style="text-align: justify;">
	Benefits of current energy efficiency policies</h2>
<p class="A_Standard__35__20_Normal" style="text-align: justify;">
	Among the proven advantages for business and consumers are, f<span class="A__T2">or instance:</span></p>
<ul>
	<li class="A_Standard__35__20_Normal" style="text-align: justify;">
		<strong><span class="A__T4">Energy intensity</span></strong><span class="A__T2"> in EU industry has decreased by almost 19% between 2001 and 2011. </span></li>
	<li class="A_Standard__35__20_Normal" style="text-align: justify;">
		<strong><span class="A__T2">More </span><span class="A__T4">efficient appliances</span></strong><span class="A__T2"> like refrigerators and washing machines are expected to save consumers &euro;100 billion annually &ndash; about &euro;465 per household &ndash; on their energy bills by 2020. </span></li>
	<li class="A_Standard__35__20_Normal" style="text-align: justify;">
		<strong><span class="A__T4">New buildings</span></strong><span class="A__T2"> consume half as much energy today as they did in the 1980s. </span></li>
</ul>
<h2 class="A_Sous-titre_20_1_P7" style="text-align: justify;">
	Long-term benefits</h2>
<p class="A_Standard__35__20_Normal" style="text-align: justify;">
	<span class="A__T2">T</span>he Communication also explores the positive impacts of energy efficiency <span class="A__T2">on the lives of Europeans </span>over the next sixteen years<span class="A__T2">:</span></p>
<ul>
	<li class="A_Standard__35__20_Normal" style="text-align: justify;">
		<span class="A__T2">For every additional 1 percent in energy savings, EU </span><strong><span class="A__T4">gas imports</span></strong><span class="A__T2"> are expected to fall by 2.6%, decreasing our dependence on external suppliers.</span></li>
	<li class="A_Standard__35__20_Normal" style="text-align: justify;">
		<span class="A__T2">More </span><strong><span class="A__T4">energy efficient buildings</span></strong><span class="A__T2"><strong> </strong>will offer &#39;ancillary benefits&#39; to people who live and work in them in addition to reducing their energy bills. For example, better windows can provide for increased air quality and protection from external noise.</span></li>
	<li class="A_Standard__35__20_Normal" style="text-align: justify;">
		<span class="A__T2">Energy efficiency policies will create new</span><span class="A__T4"> <strong>opportunities for European businesses</strong></span><span class="A__T2"> such as construction firms and equipment manufacturers. In line with this, new local jobs are created.</span></li>
</ul>
<h2 class="A_Standard_Sous-titre_20_1" style="text-align: justify;">
	What&#39;s next?</h2>
<p class="A_Standard__35__20_Normal" style="text-align: justify;">
	<span class="A__T7">As the Communication announces</span><span class="A__T6">, <strong>the European Commission will review progress</strong></span><strong><span class="A__T7"> </span><span class="A__T6">on energy efficiency</span><span class="A__T7"> </span><span class="A__T6">in 2017</span></strong><span class="A__T7">. It will explore the question whether additional indicators should be used to express and monitor progress towards the energy efficiency target. This could be indicators, such as energy intensity, which better take account of underlying changes in and projections for GDP and population growth.</span></p>
<h2 class="A_Standard_Sous-titre_20_1" style="text-align: justify;">
	Background</h2>
<p class="A_Standard__35__20_Normal" style="text-align: justify;">

<p style="text-align: justify;">
	We are glad to share with you feedback from a customer on his experience with the use of the system &lsquo;solar panel and water tank in one single unit&#39; <strong>Compact &ndash; Advanced Solar Technology</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	<em>&ldquo;In the winter, during days when there was no sun at all, the water temperature was 40 degrees Celsius, while the thermometer is situated about 10 metres from the system, that is where the temperature is several degrees lower than the temperature in the water tank.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	<em>I have an acquaintance who is working on the maintenance of solar systems. When I told him that I do not need to touch anything in regard to the solar collector or the water tank, he cannot believe it that there is a system that does not require maintenance.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	<em>At home we also have an old water coil tank connected to a boiler on coal and wood. In our case, the water heating from the solar collector provides higher temperature and better efficiency levels than the water tank connected to the boiler.&rdquo;</em></p>
