Energy savings in Břeclav hospital using the EPC
The Břeclav regional hospital has decided to reconstruct obsolete energy technologies using the EPC method. SEVEn was selected as a project facilitator, i.e. a senior advisor and organiser of the preparation and selection process for energy service providers. Our task was to carry out a basic analysis of the situation, to prepare a detailed tender dossier, an EPC contract, to organise a tender, to provide technical advice to the contracting authority and to supervise the actual installation of energy savings measures. A contract for the future EPC energy service provider was prepared by SEVEn at the beginning of the project, was discussed with the contracting authority and entered into the tender documentation.The tender was announced in the form of a negotiated procedure with publication. In the final round of negotiations, the winning company was selected from the four participants with a design that best meets the customer‘s requirements.
The selected contractor financed and implemented the entire project in the amount of over CZK 50 million over the next six months. In addition to complete heating reconstruction, the project also addresses water savings, hot water heating, lighting and more. The project will be repaid over the next 10 years, based only on operational savings, mainly by reducing energy and water costs. SEVEn worked in the project not only during the entire project preparation and the organisation of the tender until the contract was signed, but also supervised the implementation of the measure with the technical solution contained in the contract. Already after the first year of operation it turned out that the annual cost savings achieved under the EPC contract were not only met but even exceeded. The project brings not only energy savings to the hospital but also net profit every year.
