An energy inefficient hospital in Zenica, Bosnia, will be granted €11 million (£9.6m) for green upgrades, according to an article on the Energy Live News website.

 

The Zenica Cantonal Hospital is the second largest polluter in the city after the local steelworks.

 

Improvements will include installation of energy efficient gas-fired boilers, roof insulation, adequate central ventilation, rehabilitation of the heat distribution system, a new drainage system and construction of a 2,800-meter square extension of the hospital.

 

The investment aims for energy savings of up to 60 percent and a reduction in CO2 emissions level by 80 percent.
