About NAPE
NAPE was established in 1994 as an initiative of the Polish Energy Conservation Foundation and the Polish Development Bank as a response to the growing market demand for energy-efficient investments in Poland. As a leading energy agency in Poland, NAPE co-founded the 2000 Association of Energy Auditors (1400 members) and 2004 association of Polish energy agencies – SAPE (10 members).
NAPE is an active member of the Business Support Centre for SMEs, operated by its mother company – the Energy Conservation Foundation. NAPE is a consulting and engineering company. As an SME they have 14 full-time employees and around 40 technical, economic, and business development experts on a project base. NAPE provides services, studies, programmes, and projects within all energy sectors. They have a particular emphasis on technical, financial, and capacity building fields, which are rendered in a competitive way in Poland and abroad. NAPE takes part in EU co-financed projects since 1998.
Role in the Project
NAPEs has 25 years of experience in developing the energy efficiency of buildings. Within European Projects, NAPE has developed and tested several tools and models supporting thermo-modernization (including RES solutions and deep thermo-modernization) in buildings in Poland. Furthermore, NAPE’s core business is energy auditing and energy analysis of building what is a base for proper thermo- modernization. Knowledge and experience in this field will support developing a proper model for RINNO’s Polish demo site and the appropriate execution of its implementation.
NAPE will be responsible for the selection of the most promising solutions for RINNO’s Polish demo site. Its individual requirements include technical, environmental, and economic aspects as and the implementation of those solutions in order to transform the demo- building into nZEB.
